Maybe I Eli> have a version that's too old? Could be. I see that the -l option wasn't added to libiconv's "iconv" until 1.8. So, that explains the error message. According to ChangeLog, iconvlist was added 2002-01-13, a few months before the 1.8 release. 1.8 was released in 2002. That seems rather old to me; but if users are really still using it, I suppose we ought to deal with it.

I think I have an understanding of the failure modes and I can set up environments here to test them. So, I think it is up to you. I'm thinking of changing the startup code to use pexecute rather than popen. Does pexecute work on DJGPP? Tom
