Hi,

It would be useful if someone could rebuild the two packages
  https://cygwin.com/packages/summary/mingw64-i686-win-iconv.html
  https://cygwin.com/packages/summary/mingw64-x86_64-win-iconv.html
based off the current git HEAD [1].

Reason: The current git HEAD is a reasonable alternative to
GNU libiconv; all encodings that it supports, other than EUC-JP
and GB18030, have reasonably good conversion tables. Wherease the
current Cygwin packages are based off source code from 2013
and have a major problem already with the ASCII encoding.

Regards,

          Bruno
