This a well known not a bug (I'm sure similar issues are discussed in the
mailing list, also user code implementing char <-> char conversions via iconv):
output to UTF-8 is done by wchar_t streams (thus, for example, wcout not cout),
which use a std::codecvt<wchar_t, char, mbstate_t> to convert from the internal
wchar_t representation to an external sequence of UTF-8 chars: note that
nothing in the standard mandates the availability in the library of non-trivial
conversions char <-> char. Many examples of proper UTF-8 output in the
testsuite.
