--disable-nls makes no difference at all with respect to libiconv.
See my previous mail. All --disable-nls does is remove a dependency
on libintl.

This is not a Solaris-only problem.

We can either:

	1) Build cm3 releases on boxes that haven't got libiconv installed.
	2) Declare libiconv an official dependency of cm3.
	3) Hack the dependency on libiconv out of the build
	   systems of cm3cg and m3gdb, and possibly others.

1) is a pain for people making releases.

2) is easy for developers, and nothing changes for users because
we've always implicitly depended on libiconv without noticing.

I've posted a crude patch that does 3) for cm3cg, but not for m3gdb.
