Applying my patch and build with ICONV_OMITS_BOM=Yes, t0028.3 passed
but t0028.4 and t0028.21 run into failure. Here is the dump of first
10 characters of test.utf16lebom:

          '0xff',
          '0xfe',
          '0xfe',
          '0xff',
          '0x0',
          '0x68',
          '0x0',
          '0x61',
          '0x0',
          '0x6c',

Digging a bit more, it seems like iconv(3) from utf-16-le-bom to utf-8
there is broken, iconv(3) thinks it's converting from utf-16-be to
utf-8:
