>Description:
1/ <dirent.h> defines
    long telldir(const DIR *);
   POSIX does not require the const.

2/ <iconv.h> defines
        size_t  iconv(iconv_t, const char ** __restrict,
                     size_t * __restrict, char ** __restrict,
                     size_t * __restrict);
   POSIX does not require the const on the second argument.
>How-To-Repeat:
Inspect POSIX and the two header files
