> But where is the iconv.diff file?

Did you try googling for "rsync iconv.diff"?  (You would have found it in the
first item returned.)  Because the patch is still incomplete, it is not yet
included in the patches dir (I am hoping to avoid having any packagers use it
before it is really ready).

There has been a huge amount of design that has gone into the iconv.diff patch,
so I believe I have this solved.  (FYI, option "b" is used due to the
non-portability of character-set naming strings between OSes.)

> This does not affect parameters on the command line

It very much affects parameters on the command line when specifying remote
filenames to pull, when specifying a remote destination directory when pushing
files, and when pulling "virtual command-line names" specified via the
--files-from option (none of which are translated in the current patch).
