Hi Ben, it's easy to update configure but as far as I see it's not a standart location for iconv. I assume you installed it from sources and autoconf don't know /usr/local as location (that work on linux out of the box). You need to find why /usr/local is not in standart seek path by autoconf. Due to the fact that we use standart macros from autoconf it should work.
As workaround you can always use: ./configure --with-cflags="-L/usr/local/lib -I/usr/local/include" ...
