1. You should never edit anything in the OS directory. Instead, you
should have put HAVE_ICONV=no into Local/Makefile. That way, you can
just copy Local/Makefile when you want to compile the next release,
instead of having to re-edit.

2. I compile Exim quite happily on Solaris 5.9 without having to do
anything special about HAVE_ICONV. Are you using an earlier release? Ah
yes, you did say 5.8. I suspect iconv() must have been added to 5.9 in a
more standard way.

Yes, one needs to remember that bit on Solaris when you specify
additional libraries.
