That's not true, at least NO_OPENSSL, NO_PTHREADS, NO_ICONV,
NO_LIBGEN_H, NO_MMAP and NO_SYS_SELECT_H use the NO_-prefix to include
libraries (as opposed to the NEEDS_-prefix). And to be honest, I think
the NEEDS_-prefix would be a lie in this case; we don't NEED it, we
take advantage of it if it's there.
To be honest, I just mimicked what was done for detection of gettext.
Perhaps HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H would be the appropriate define? It's what
we use for paths.h (HAVE_PATHS_H)...

I don't think there's any point to it - libcharset.h is pretty much
just about that one function. And if it turns out I'm wrong, we can
add a check like that in the future.

Perhaps, but can't that wait until we encounter a system that needs it?
What's interesting there is what you say about GNU iconv handling "".
This means that the minimal fix for Windows could be even smaller -
we're using GNU iconv :)

I think Solaris, Linux, FreeBSD and Windows is a pretty wide selection
of platforms, so I hope it should be pretty painless once this hits
'next'. Sure, there might be some platforms that needs a fix-up, but
there always is with new code. And besides, there's even time to test
more platforms before merging to 'next', no? :)
