Thanks Junio,
that partly obsoletes the patch I'm working on.
And as I didn't manage to catch up, may I send the result of my review?

a) in readdir we die() when iconv_open() fails, and we could/should do 
that in void precompose_argv() as well?

b) Should die("txt") be converted into die(_("txt")) to be able to 
translate the message?

c) We can remove the save/restore of errno at one place, similar to this:
