[xml] Compilation problems with two version of iconv on Solaris system

[<John Hockaday ga gov au>]

Hi,

I'm trying to compile libxml2.6.10 on a Solaris 2.8 UNIX platform.  There are
two versions of iconv on this system, /usr/bin/iconv and
/usr/local/bin/iconv.  I'm trying to use the former iconv so that my compiled
software will work on other similar UNIX boxes.

I configure as follows:

./configure --prefix=/public/data/asddgate --with-iconv=/usr

But when I make I get the following errors:

cc1: warning: changing search order for system directory "/usr/include"
cc1: warning:   as it has already been specified as a non-system directory

If I configure as follows:

./configure --prefix=/public/data/asddgate 

It can't seem to find the iconv stuff as follows:

...
checking for pthread.h... yes
checking for pthread_join in -lpthread... yes
checking iconv.h usability... yes
checking iconv.h presence... yes
checking for iconv.h... yes
checking for iconv... no
checking for iconv in -liconv... yes
Enabled Schemas/Relax-NG support
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating libxml2.spec
config.status: creating Makefile
...

Can someone help me with this problem?

Thanks.
