Hi Alex,

I worked out a slightly different patch to devel/patch this morning
and just committed it.  It already uses a construct for inlining the
charset data for certain platforms when it shouldn't install the
charset.alias file due to package conflicts.

Let me know if you see any issues with that.

Thank you,
Greg
