Hi again,

Sorry, let's take a step back.

What exact commands do you use to build, starting from a pristine
extracted tarball?  What output do you get back?

Sounds like NEEDS_LIBICONV should be set on Solaris.  You can test
this by passing NEEDS_LIBICONV=YesPlease on the gmake command line and
seeing what happens.

But it seems odd --- was iconv once part of libc on Solaris and then
moved out or something?  There have been lots of people building git
on Solaris over the years (and writing patches to fix other build
problems) without needing to set that flag.

The options for tweaking the build are described at the top of the
Makefile.

Thanks again,
Jonathan
