[syslog-ng] syslog-ng 3.01 compilation error on Solaris

[Rakesh Rajasekharan]

Thanks Gergely... I went for 3.0.7 and as with 3.0.1 the same error existed
here as well. Now as you suggested I build libiconv with the --enable-static
( in configure). and after which everything went perfectly fine.

Best Regards,
Rakesh
