    Problem Text
    There is a PIN for this assertion for the previous test version, PIN5.009.

    The problem in that pin is similiar but the source of the problem was:

    Error is caused by the following declaration which can be find at line
    121 in the L.iconv module:

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

    According to "X/Open System Interfaces and Headers, Issue 4" at page 206,
    it should be:

    size_t iconv(iconv_t cd, const char **inbuf, size_t *inbytesleft,
    char **outbuf, size_t *outbytesleft);

    That is, the second argument is "const char **" and not "char **".

    L.iconv has been changed since the PIN was granted and that line no longer
    appears. It is clear that the test is not passing for the same reasons
    though, just coming from a different incorrect line of code in the suite.

    /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

    Review Response
    Although the style of compiler diagnostic is different, it is clear
    that the test is failing for the same reason as in PIN5.009. I.e. the
    test code expects a "char **" argument where the iconv() prototype in
    the system's <iconv.h> header had "const char **".

    Thus this failure is already covered by PIN5.009 and there is no need
    to issue another PIN.

    It is recommended that this request is refused.
