Commits 2fd955cc0b49de9e64b2f073ce76033975f0be24 and e15f545155bb4b2cad4475a25cad8fb576d37dee seem to contradict each other. The first claims that NEEDS_LIBICONV is needed on Solaris 10, while the second claims that it is not needed on Solaris 9 and up.

All I know is that I have a Solaris *8* machine here and that I _don't_ need NEEDS_LIBICONV. There is no -liconv on this machine. (I'm CC'ing Uwe, because he apparently also has access to a Solaris 8 machine).

So is the current setting correct on some versions of Solaris 8 and if so, is there some way to change this setting from the command line ?

Btw, like Uwe, I also don't have a "gtar" and "ginstall" on this machine.
