Description:
------------
The PHP 6 version of iconv_strlen() does not raise a notice when a invalid charset is specified for the optional charset argument

Similar issue with iconv_strpos(). 

Reproduce code:

<?php
	$string = 'abcdef';
	$encoding = 'unknown-encoding';
	var_dump(iconv_strlen($string, $encoding));
?>


Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)
PHP Notice:  iconv_strlen(): Wrong charset, conversion from `unknown-encoding' to `UCS-4LE' is not allowed in ...

Actual result:
--------------
int(6)
