versions up through 3.9 (but will be fixed in the forthcoming 3.10
release), and might affect other tools that do instruction emulation.
* Support for loadable gconv transliteration modules has been removed.
The support for transliteration modules has been non-functional for
over a decade, and the removal is prompted by security defects. The
normal gconv conversion modules are still supported. Transliteration
with //TRANSLIT is still possible, and the //IGNORE specifier
continues to be supported. (CVE-2014-5519)
