Subject: Iconv library - differences between Ruby 1.8.2 and 1.8.4?

Hi,

I'm new to ruby-core, so firstly, hello to all the awesome Ruby-bosses here.

Now, the question: what are the changes in the iconv library between in Ruby 
1.8.2 and Ruby 1.8.4-preview1? In particular, I'm wondering if there are any 
incompatibilities between the more recent version of the library and the older 
version of Ruby?

I'm interested because of a particular problem that is solved between the 
library versions on a particular Windows setup, One-Click Installer plus the 
Iconv addon pack. The original issue was raised in [ruby-talk:170478]:

Cheers,
