[Mono-list] Iconv error

[Piers Haken]

Okay, I did that, but now the build complains about not being able to
find "libiconv.la", but I have a "libiconv.a" that came with the gimp
distro. What's the difference?

just a crazy idea.

how about uninstalling the iconv that comes with cygwin?  i think mono
installs its own with glib and stuff.
