For what value of "should"?  _iconv is in the implementation-defined
namespace.

It's curious that this doesn't break the tools build, and doesn't
prevent using the built tools to build a kernel!  If this can break
the cross-build of the target compiler, I think we must have suddenly
sprouted a rather serious instance of host/target confusion.
