+       Implement #491549: On Windows, always use the native API for
+       character set conversions instead of GNU libiconv. Almost all
+       codesets supported by GNU libiconv exist as Windows codepages.
+       One missing feature is the "C99" and "JAVA" pseudo codesets, but I
+       doubt that is worth worrying about.
+       
+       * glib/win_iconv.c: New file. iconv() implementation for
+       Windows. Placed in the public domain by Yukihiro Nakadaira
+       <yukihiro.nakadaira@gmail.com>. From
+       http://yukihiro.nakadaira.googlepages.com/win_iconv.zip, his
+       2007-11-17 version.
+
+       * glib/gconvert.c: Include win_iconv.c on Windows.
+
+       * configure.in: Bypass iconv checks on Windows.

        * glib/gtestutils.c: Add conditionals for non-Unix. Just g_error()
