Summary:                    [patch] Iconv is a glibc-ism, and as such should be
called out explicitly
Description: 
For those of us building Asterisk against uClibc, we don't have iconv() in
the earlier releases.

This causes compilation to break without the attached fix.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
On the contrary:  iconv is a POSIX standard:

While the lack of it may trouble you on uclibc, this doesn't make it a
glibc-specific function.
