FWIW, the API looks quite different:

[colin at jimmy libmbfl-1.0.1]$ ccgrep mbfl_identify_encoding .
./mbfl/mbfilter.c:mbfl_identify_encoding(mbfl_string *string, enum
mbfl_no_encoding *elist, int elistsz, int strict)
./mbfl/mbfilter.c:mbfl_identify_encoding_name(mbfl_string *string, enum
mbfl_no_encoding *elist, int elistsz, int strict)
./mbfl/mbfilter.c:	encoding = mbfl_identify_encoding(string, elist,
elistsz, strict);
./mbfl/mbfilter.c:mbfl_identify_encoding_no(mbfl_string *string, enum
mbfl_no_encoding *elist, int elistsz, int strict)
./mbfl/mbfilter.c:	encoding = mbfl_identify_encoding(string, elist,
elistsz, strict);
./mbfl/mbfilter.h:mbfl_identify_encoding(mbfl_string *string, enum
mbfl_no_encoding *elist, int elistsz, int strict);
./mbfl/mbfilter.h:mbfl_identify_encoding_name(mbfl_string *string, enum
mbfl_no_encoding *elist, int elistsz, int strict);
./mbfl/mbfilter.h:mbfl_identify_encoding_no(mbfl_string *string, enum
mbfl_no_encoding *elist, int elistsz, int strict);
[colin at jimmy libmbfl-1.0.1]$ cd ../libmb
libmbfl-1.0.1/ libmbfl-1.2.0/
[colin at jimmy libmbfl-1.0.1]$ cd ../libmbfl-1.2.0/
[colin at jimmy libmbfl-1.2.0]$ ccgrep mbfl_identify_encoding .
./mbfl/mbfilter.c:mbfl_identify_encoding(mbfl_string *string, enum
mbfl_no_encoding *elist, int elistsz, int strict)
./mbfl/mbfilter.c:mbfl_identify_encoding2(mbfl_string *string, const
mbfl_encoding **elist, int elistsz, int strict)
./mbfl/mbfilter.h:mbfl_identify_encoding(mbfl_string *string, enum
mbfl_no_encoding *elist, int elistsz, int strict);
./mbfl/mbfilter.h:mbfl_identify_encoding2(mbfl_string *string, const
mbfl_encoding **elist, int elistsz, int strict);

That's at least two functions no longer part of the public API...
