    Problem Text
    According to the X/Open CAE Specification - System Interfaces and
    Headers, Issue 4(X/Open Document Number:C202), the iconv function has
    the following prototype :

    size_t iconv(iconv_t, const char **, size_t *, char **, size_t *);

    whereas the VSX test suite checks for the prototype as :

    size_t iconv(iconv_t, char **, size_t *, char **, size_t *);

    i.e, There is a conflict between the document and the test suite with
    respect to the second argument.
    Test Output

    ************************************************************************
    /tset/XPG4.hdr/misc/iconv/T.iconv 4 Failed

    Test Description:
    The header file contains a prototype form function declaration for
    iconv().

    Test Strategy:
    UNDEFINE macro version of iconv()
    COMPARE return value against item of the same type.
    USE return value as an array reference.
    ASSIGN return value to an item of the same type.
    ASSIGN address of function to item of the same type.
    IF prototype testing is required
    VERIFY a prototype exists
    SUPPLY a correct prototype
