It's definitely a bug. Please remember that most Qt API is not supported before
the QCoreApplication object is initialized, so this bug will have a low
priority of fixing.

Indeed. The ICU-based codec system has a cache.
However, at first glance, I don't see anything that would cause the lookup to
fail before QCoreApplication.
