Changing util/xp/ut_iconv.cpp I noticed the copyright was to Abisource Inc,
Inc.

This can't be right, can it? Since we (apparently) have "stolen" most of it
from glib 2.0, and modified it to fit our stuff, doesn't the copyright still
belong to the original author?

One thing is probably for sure, and that's that AbiSource can't claim
copyright over that code since 1998 (which the source comment claims).

/Mike - credit where due, but don't put someone else' ass on the line...
