At the moment I still looking for deadloop reports. My personal code check finished with the negative result. All loops in library core seems to be definite. The only possible deadloop case I can imagine (but inside client software) might be provoked by incorrect iconv() call return value. Hopefuly patch for this issue already present in ports tree. Next. I added iso8859-16 to the iconv-extra as it was supposed by Konstantin other missed charsets will be available on demand till the moment I will have nothing to do but to add them.
