Hi Pamela,

Sorry for the late response, and thank you for the bug report.

This is the bug showing up.  Why does it want to link against libiconv
here?  Which library causes it to be pulled ini (you could use ldd, nm
and objdump to find out, or ask)?  It should not show up.  (And it's
definitely not a sign of broken libtool hardcode semantics on solaris.)

The other three are ok.
