OK, to answer your question, there are ebcdic codes:
$ iconv -l |grep -i ebcdic
ebcdic-at-de
ebcdic-at-de-a
ebcdic-be
...
$ iconv -l |grep -i ebcdic |wc -l
43
And configure did not mess with iconv or icu. Looking at ./configure
--help, that shows iconv=on and icu=off. libxml2 is using NetBSD's
iconv.
I have recipes to build both iconv and icu
(https://github.com/noloader/Build-Scripts). I'll test them to see
what kind of results I get. I try to use iconv judiciously because I
am not a fan of Gnulib the way it is currently designed and
implemented. I'm OK with GNU providing replacement functions, I just
don't like the way they do it with Gnulib.
