As noted earlier in this bug, the only error reports that I've had about
this issue are from reprotests, and not actual users wanting to use
RK1048 as their language encoding for kk_KZ.

I've prepared a change which should fix this problem, by falling back to
calling iconv from libc-bin to handle unrecognised encodings.

Hopefully this should resolve the issue for reprotests, although I've
tried to make it sufficiently general that it might actually be useful
for someone with an unusual, unsupported encoding.
