Re: insert-unicode-char

["Zvi Har'El" <rl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Another remark: In the solaris 9 system, I have two copies of libiconv
installed: one in /usr/lib (the solaris native), and one in /usr/local/lib
(from GNU libiconv-1.10), and the latter directory is in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
both in installation time and in run time, and ldd =zsh shows that it uses
/usr/local/lib/libiconv.so.2. On the Redhat system, where unicode esacpe
sequences work, I am using glibc.
