Description Marc Stern 2016-07-07 11:46:34 UTC 
In apr_iconv_open(), the variable 'data' may be uninitialized on line 97.

1. The flows actually ensure that it is initialized but it's not explicit
2. It generates a warning on some compilers
3. Safe compilers options may prevent the build (ex: /SDL in Visual C++)
