LDAP and UTF-8

Hi,
I am using the NET ADS USER command in Samba head to list the users stored
in a Win2K ADS. Some user names contain non-english characters encoded in UTF-8
format which don't get displayed correctly. Winbindd has the same problems.
I added the some UTF-8 helper functions to lib/chrcnv.c to be able to convert
UTF-8 to unix.
Would someone comment on
a) is there another (better) way to convert from UTF-8 to Unix than
using convert_string(...) and adding the pull_ and push_ wrapper functions ?
b) what is the difference between CH_UNIX and CH_DISPLAY, when should I
convert to CH_DISPLAY instead of CH_UNIX ?
c) are there platforms without iconv, so this will possibly break things ?
