Description Jerker Bäck 2009-12-09 16:09:04 UTC 
Unportable compiler issues:

The ICONV_ZERO_MB_STATE_T macro in iconv/lib/local.h seems to be GCC specific. 
There is also an unusual implementation in libc/iconv/lib/ucsconv.c to reset a 
mbstate_t data structure.

As mentioned in your other bug, newlib maintainers don't use bugzilla for
bugs/patching.  It's all done on the mailing list.   Please submit your issues
and patches directly to the mailing list.  It would also help to mention what
compiler you are using for future reference.
