Comment:
I'm now told by the iconv developers this is a Solaris bug:
{{{
You see "Segmentation Fault - core dumped" messages, but the test suite
continued to run and passed. ("make" did not report a failing target.)
The 'check-subst' file contains a comment about the origin of these
messages:
# This printf command crashes on Solaris 10.
# See
<http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6550204>.
So, it does not indicate a bug in GNU libiconv, only in a Solaris program
that
is used by the testsuite. Harmless.

}}}
I expect with some patches, this could be solved, as it was fixed several
years ago, but I'm testing this on an early release of Solaris.
