Sorry, I'm not following: last time I looked, iconv supported cpNNNN
codepages out of the box.  This is from an Ubuntu GNU/Linux system:

  $ iconv --version
  iconv (GNU libiconv 1.11)
  $ iconv --list | egrep "^CP"
  CP819 IBM819 ISO-8859-1 ISO-IR-100 ISO8859-1 ISO_8859-1 ISO_8859-1:1987 L1 LATIN1 CSISOLATIN1
  CP1250 MS-EE WINDOWS-1250
  CP1251 MS-CYRL WINDOWS-1251
  CP1252 MS-ANSI WINDOWS-1252
  CP1253 MS-GREEK WINDOWS-1253
  CP1254 MS-TURK WINDOWS-1254
  CP1255 MS-HEBR WINDOWS-1255
  CP1256 MS-ARAB WINDOWS-1256
  CP1257 WINBALTRIM WINDOWS-1257
  CP1258 WINDOWS-1258
  CP154 CYRILLIC-ASIAN PT154 PTCP154 CSPTCP154
  CP1133 IBM-CP1133
  CP874 WINDOWS-874
  CP932
  CP936 MS936 WINDOWS-936
  CP950
  CP949 UHC
  CP1361 JOHAB

What am I missing?
