>Description:
        When trying to build php4-iconv, the configure stage fails to find 
libiconv, causing
        a terminal error before starting the build stage.

        Software versions:
                pkgsrc collection up to date until 2004/06/07 15:00 CET (+0200)
                php-iconv version 4.3.6nb2
                libiconv 1.9.1nb2

        Make clean; make install results in the following output:

        [...]
        checking for iconv support... yes, shared
        checking for iconv... no
        checking for libiconv... no
        configure: error: Please specify the install prefix of iconv with 
--with-iconv=<DIR>
        *** Error code 1

        Stop.
        make: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/converters/php4-iconv
        *** Error code 1

        Stop.
        make: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/converters/php4-iconv

        
>How-To-Repeat:
        cd /usr/pkgsrc/converters/php4-iconv
        make clean; make install
        
>Fix:
        Apparently, the configure lines need different info. The following diff 
works for
        me (i.e. allowing the software to compile and function afterwards).

        Undoubtedly there may be a cleaner or more elegant solution to this,
        but this seemed to do the trick for me. I hope it is of use.
