Change OSCAR to use UTF-16 rather than UCS-2 conversions. Apparently some iconv implementations (notably win_iconv) are dropping UCS-2 support, due to the impression that it is obsolete. For BMP characters, UTF-16 should be bitwise identical to UCS-2, so if OSCAR really *is* UCS-2, this shouldn't hurt anything. If it turns out it's capable of UTF-16, well, then, more's the better.
