[SunHELP] libiconv.so.2

[Clif Smith]

So, there's no way I can compile perl so it knows where the library is 
itself vs. telling users to set this and/or me setting it in 
/etc/profile, etc.?

RE: Side Note: I compiled and placed it there as I'm supporting a number 
of applications and some need perl v5.8 and one old one needs v5.6.1.
