- Changed char_to_java() to use C charset instead of JVM's default encoding.

- Changed PosixFileFunctions.readLink() to return String instead of byte[].

 * Freebsd: finish port.
 * Freebsd: fail for unsupported architecture.
 * Freebsd: build 32 bit and 64 bit libraries.
-* Unix: char_to_java() should use libc charset instead of java file.encoding
 
 ### Improvements
 
 * Implement java_to_char_str()
+* Use iconv() to convert from C char string to UTF-16 when converting from C char string to Java String.
 * Support for cygwin terminal
 * Use TERM=xtermc instead of TERM=xterm on Solaris.
 * Add diagnostics for terminal.
