I'm having some issues with iconv, Xft, and UTF-8 rendering. Could you
please help me look into this:

The easiest of those to reproduce is probably blackbox:
http://cygwin-ports.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/cygwin-ports/ports/trunk/x11/blackbox/
If you omit 0.70.1-disable-unicode-fonts.patch, build blackbox, and run
it within a standard X display (not multiwindow), you'll see what I
mean; you don't have to install it to run it for this purpose.
Right now, I want to figure out if the problem is with Cygwin, iconv,
libXft, or these packages (although I doubt the latter). Any assistance
you can provide would be appreciated.
