Cool.

I've tested the iconv codec (checked out last night) on two
Linux boxes of mine, one with glibc-2.1.2 and the other with
old libc5 plus libiconv-1.5.1
(http://clisp.cons.org/~haible/packages-libiconv.html).

I have the following error messages on both two platforms:

Python 2.0 (#1, Oct 27 2000, 00:27:59) 
[GCC 2.7.2.3] on linux2
>>> import iconvcodec
>>> unicode("test","euc-jp")

    return self.decoder.iconv(msg, return_unicode=1),len(msg)

What goes wrong?
