I don't (dejagnu doesn't work on DOS), but I can easily run the same
test manually.

Something's definitely wrong, because "set target-charset TAB" just
beeps, and if I type RET, it says:

    (gdb) set target-charset
    Requires an argument. Valid arguments are .

So it thinks there are no charsets available.  Maybe the line marked
below, shown as part of GDB initialization, is a hint to the trouble:

       D:\gdb-68.410\gdb>gdb ./gdb.exe
 >>>>  Usage: iconv [--binary] [-f fromcode] [-t tocode] [file ...]
       GNU gdb (GDB) 6.8.50.20090410

I will look into it.  Thanks for the leads.
