The solution (and what the patch does) is to flush the stream by passing a

procedure is adviced by the iconv maintainer (B. Haible), e.g. in this
bugzilla report which oulines the problem very clearly:

HOWEVER, I'm no iconv or encoding expert, and this is a change in a very
sensitive area, so please have a look and tell me if my analysis makes sense.
It makes perfect sense to me and Mr Haible states that quite clearly.
