	This is work in progress. Actually, I've convinced Konstantin
Chuguev, the author of iconv library, to trim down rare used tables (make
them as ports). fix some bugs etc, so the library can be included in the
base system without much overhead.

	In addition, I've wrote kernel side iconv-like interface which
uses libiconv library to construct recode tables. Currently, each
filesystem (msdosfs, nwfs, smbfs) uses its own recode tables even if they
are the same.
