It works both with glibc-2.1.2 and with libiconv-1.5.1.  Thanks.

FYI: I've modified setup.py in the following way to build the
iconv codec with an old libc5 and libiconv.  Two iconv libraries
are statically linked so that iconvmodule.so can be imported
without relying on the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
The prefix /opt/libiconv-1.5.1 should be changed appropriately.
I could not figure out a way to achieve the same things without
modifying the setup.py script (possible?).
