I've encountered the problem on one Solaris 8 system that there was a
Chinese locale package installed (I don't remember the name right now)
that contained a libiconv.so which _only handled Chinese locales_.
Naturally, svn had managed to link against that libiconv.so. Doing
pkgrm on the Chinese packages and recompiling svn fixed the problem.
Normally, libiconv.so shouldn't be included in the link at all on
Solaris 8, since the iconv functions are in libc.so. Check your
binary with ldd.
