Sorry, I had hoped that the autotools could deal with this somehow and since I only use FreeBSD I could only get to the "works for me" state. What does break on Linux? The intent is to check for libiconv.h in the default include path and for iconv_open in libiconv, assuming that libiconv can be located without adding -L/path/to/libiconv to LDFLAGS explicitly.
OK, I learned that glibc(?) nowadays includes iconv functionality. I updated the patch so that it checks for iconv_open in libc first and, failing this, in libiconv next. It still works on FreeBSD 6.2, could you please test whether this is the correct approach for Linux et al?
