Try going into garnome-0.28.3/bootstrap/libiconv and doing "make
install" there prior to "make install" for gnome-desktop.

As for the "real" solution, you might want to modify LDFLAGS and
CFLAGS so configure could find libiconv (in case you really have it
installed), or modify configure parameters so that it looks for it
elsewhere.
