So I removed my gdbm package.

And it got past that now it fails with:

 ld: cannot find -liconv
 I can't compile the test program.
 You have a BIG problem.  Shall I abort Configure [y]
 Ok.  Stopping Configure.

This is strange. For some reason, the perl build is seeing the /usr/pkg/*
even when using buildlinking. (Nothing is buildlinked other than
work/.buildlink/bin/ defaults.)

One thing I changed was that I was using SH=ksh and now am using SH=bash.
I tried both ways (after make clean) and no change.

I wonder if it has something to do with the hints/*sh files having the
/usr/pkg paths added at end.

Has anyone else seen this?
