Description:
------------
I get the following error generated:
   mb_convert_encoding(): Unable to detect character encoding

Up to 4.3.3 this works no problem. I compiled php with same options including the --enable-mbstring=all. If I look at phpinfo() output it seems that all the languages are missing no matter if I compile with --enable-mbstring=ja or other.

I noticed another bug which was closed that fixed a bug in the  reporting of phpinfo() for mbstring where it was suggested that all languages were included now from 4.3.4 independant of compile options.

The code snippet that was used to generate the error above is simply:

echo mb_convert_encoding($jText, 'SJIS','AUTO');

where $jText is some "EUC-JP" text.

I tried the latest php snapshot from cvs also and it also doesn't work. If you need a short example program to reproduce this problem, I can look into it from Monday/Tuesday.

Please try setting mbstring.language to the appropriate 
language name in your php.ini.

Thanks guys... sorry for lack of feedback. I've not had time to test a new php build in dev yet since trying it last time. I'll reopen the bug if the suggested fix fails, but for now you can assume it works.
