+ New in 1.16:
+ * The preloadable library has been removed.
+ New in 1.15:
+ * The UTF-8 converter now rejects surrogates and out-of-range code points.
+ * Added ISO-2022-JP-MS converter.
+ * Updated the CP1255 converter to map one more character.
+ * The functions now support strings longer than 2 GB.
+ New in 1.14:
+ * The 'iconv' program now produces its output as soon as it can. It no longer
+   unnecessarily waits for more input.
+ * Updated the GB18030 converter to map 25 characters to code points that have
+   been to Unicode since 2000, rather than to code points in the Private Use
+   Area.
+ * Updated the BIG5-HKSCS converter. The old BIG5-HKSCS converter is renamed to
+   BIG5-HKSCS:2004. A new converter BIG5-HKSCS:2008 is added. BIG5-HKSCS is now
+   an alias for BIG5-HKSCS:2008.
+ * Fixed a bug in the conversion to wchar_t.
+ * Fixed a small bug in the CP1258 converter.
  New in 1.13:
  * The library and the iconv program now understand platform dependent aliases,
    for better compatibility with the platform's own iconv_open function.
