If this test failed with exit code 16 for you, it means that iconv()
cannot convert from/to EUC-JP. Thus, it does not fulfil the expectations
of GNU gettext.

glibc's "make install" installs all the iconv converters. Your
linux-from-scratch tutorial
https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/chapter05/glibc.html
https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/chapter08/glibc.html
recommends a "make install".
