Hello,

In version 5.3.3 and 5.3.4, the problem is still not
resolved

This bug has been fixed in SVN.

Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change
will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at
http://snaps.php.net/.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.

This bug has been only fixed on trunk, because from what I can see, it
might cause BC issue on 5.3 series.

Description:
------------
When the function fails because of illegal characters, the function
never returns false

Test script:
---------------
<?php

    $str = "PATHOLOGIES MÉDICO-CHIRUR. ADUL. PL";
    $str_iconv = iconv('CP850', 'ISO-8859-1', $str );
    var_dump($str_iconv);

?>

Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)

Actual result:
--------------
string(13) "PATHOLOGIES M"


------------------------------------------------------------------------
