The code works, good!
There are only some more iconv issues to fix :)

- finish support for no-GNU iconv (indirect conversion see src/tds/iconv.c)

one of my TODO

- borrow GNU's libiconv m4 macro to test/provide EILSEQ
  (some iconv implementation do not return EILSEQ, some platforms do not define 
EILSEQ)

We need this ?

- add test for locale_charset() to configure.in.  Use it if available instead 
of nl_langinfo, because it implies we're using GNU iconv

We never used nl_langinfo...

The same. I don't like some thing in implementation
- Sybase do not have CS_UNIVARCHAR_TYPE constant but only CS_UNICHAR_TYPE
- SYBUNIVARCHAR it's not a server type
- there are no conversion from UTF16 to client

Fixed. Now even utf8_2 test works
