What does the output from "uname -r" and "uname -s" look like on your box
(and older OSX boxes)?

This existing one says "If 'uname -r' output does not begin with two
characters '9.' (nine and dot), then set OLD_ICONV".

And this new one says "If 'uname -r' output begins with two characters
'1.' (one and dot), then set NO_STRLCPY".

I am guessing that 'uname -r' says 9.X in "Darwin 9.X" (which is OSX
10.5), and existing conditional says that versions before 9.X needs
OLD_ICONV but later ones do not need it.

Does 1.X stand for OSX 10.2?  A quick googling finds a handful pages that
say that OSX 10.2 = Darwin 6.x and OSX 10.3 = Darwin 7.x, and I am not
sure where you are getting that "begins with one-and-dot" from....
