Thanks for the report. Now implemented through
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=libiconv.git;a=commit;h=02abfbed3329f245e7079bcef766cb5836057c6f
Thank you! I was hopeful that I would be able to apply this translit.def update to 1.17 but it doesn't seem to
have worked (builds fine but iconv still fails). I _did_ retain the tabs, which I missed the first time I did the patch.
Do you have a timeframe when you would expect to create a 1.18 tarball for download?
If it isn't soon, I will work to get a build working with the 'git' build. I need to do that eventually anyway.

Writing to the mailing list was OK. Entering a bug report at
https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/libiconv/ would also have been OK.
