3.4.1 was just announced earlier today.  One of the things it lists as
changed from 3.4.0 is:
   * Fix linking on Solaris.

Although that doesn't sound like the problem you're running into (I
don't think) it might be a good idea to try 3.4.1 anyway.

Also, perhaps if you paste the part of the config.log where the
libiconv test fails into your next e-mail someone will be figure out
what's wrong.
