The code changes look correct.

Please review my suggestions and corrections and post a v2.

In summary:
- Test case needs more comments.
- iconv/skeleton.c should have a comment in RESET_INPUT_BUFFER
  talking about it not being called for irreversible conversions.
- Please review my analysis and conclude if we agree on the solution.

Why are we changing this in this patch?

lirreversible is counting the number of characters actually converted in an irreversible
way for the local calls to a conversion.

So this change adds another variable 'loop_irreversible' which adds together the total
global count of irreversible conversions and the current local count of irreversible
conversions.

Then we look to see if we had any irreversible conversions.

If we did then we can reset the input buffer, otherwise we can't.

This enables a lot of code which was previously only for no definition of 
RESET_INPUT_BUFFER. Why do you make this change?

I agree that it seems like defining RESET_INPUT_BUFFER should not prevent
us from attempting to undo the the conversions. Was this your conclusion also?

I agree that using RESET_INPUT_BUFFER should be the first thing we attempt
since it should allow us reset the input without the least cost, and that we
should not attempt to use it if irreversible conversions were handled.

I think that this change actually needs a change to the REST_INPUT_BUFFER
comment description, something like "The macro RESET_INPUT_BUFFER will not
be called if irreversible conversions were processed (possible due to 
the use of IGNORE)."

Why this sequence? What is special about it. Please add a comment.

Needs a clear comment why we have an output buffer smaller than the input buffer.
