Description:
------------
I found a problem with symbol \xC2\xB4
In text editors this symbol looks like "`".
But iconv() stops converting at this symbol.
The code is below.
It returns "Soil" instead of "Soil?s Song".

Reproduce code:
---------------
echo iconv('utf-8', 'cp1251', "Soil\xC2\xB4 Song");

Expected result:
----------------
Soil

Actual result:
--------------
Soil`s Song

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

That's because the "U+00B4 ACUTE ACCENT" character is not part of cp1251. It is a different character than "U+0060 GRAVE ACCENT".
