This sort of error usually means that libiconv's iconv.h is being found by
the preprocessor but -liconv isn't in the link line - possibly because
whatever OS you're using has iconv in libc?
In this case, it looks like wv has been build against libiconv but abi has
not, so abi hasn't added -liconv
Invariably it's best to let AbiWord build wv.
You could probably solve the problem (quick fix) by re-running AbiWord's
configure:
LIBS="-liconv" ./configure [OPTIONS]
