Yes, but don't be surprised to read it and find out that it doesn't work
for everyone.  I don't know anything about freetype or iconv, so I make
no promises about the quality of the patch.  Someone who knows about
these things should review it before commit.

Also, I'm away on vacation for a few days yet, so you'll have to wait
until I can get back home and look at my sources.
