Subject: YAML on solaris: problem with libiconv


I'm trying to use yamlrb-0.49.2, with ruby 1.7.3 (2002-12-20) on solaris 
7. Even the most basic uses fail:

$ ruby -r yaml -e '1.to_yaml'
/usr/path/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.7/sparc-solaris2.7/iconv.so: warning: 
defining Iconv.allocate is deprecated; use rb_define_alloc_func()
ld.so.1: ruby: fatal: relocation error: file 
/usr/path/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.7/sparc-solaris2.7/iconv.so: symbol 
libiconv_open: referenced symbol not found
Killed

This is after installing a fresh copy of libiconv (1.8), and the
reinstalling ruby. I've checked my LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and it does include 
dirs containing:

libiconv.so        libiconv.so.2.1.0
libiconv.la        libiconv.so.2      libiconv_plug.so

What am I missing?
