I'm quite happy, though, that this hasn't happened yet, since it seems that the encoding names may be different between the extensions.

It appears to be worthwhile to review the deprecation of the respective iconv.* ini options. Not quite sure about the mbstring.* ini options.
Could this not be solved by making all the extensions support all the encoding name aliases or so? That wouldn't be difficult to implement and wouldn't break anything. Thanks! -- Andrea Faulds https://ajf.me/
