configure errors: PHP with sablot on mac os x

Hi, I'm configuring PHP on my mac os X box and have been working for days reading all the lists and articles that have been written about this and I have got through a lot of issues so far but now I'm at an impass. I've compiled all the extentions that I need (expat, sablotron etc.) but now in the home stretch I'm configuring PHP and I'm getting some errors related to "iconv". If I remove the --with-sablot flag the configure runs fine, I'm baffled, thanks for any help, karl so these are my config flags ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --mandir=/usr/share/man --with-sablot --with-mysql --with-apxs --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local --disable-pear and when it gets to configuring extentions: checking for recode support... no checking for Sablotron XSL support... yes checking libexpat dir for Sablotron 0.50... no checking for Sablotron in default path... found in /usr/local checking for SablotSetEncoding in -lsablot... yes checking for iconv_open in -lc... no configure: error: iconv not found So I found out what iconv was and downloaded it from : http://freshmeat.net/redir/libiconv/5664/url_tgz/libiconv-1.7.tar.gz went through the config, make, make install etc so just for fun I thought I'd try --with-iconv=/usr/local: ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --mandir=/usr/share/man --with-sablot --with-mysql --with-apxs --with-zlib-dir=/usr/local --disable-pear --with-iconv=/usr/local <snip> checking for Hyperwave support... no checking for ICAP support... no checking for iconv support... yes checking for iconv_open in -lc... no checking for IMAP support... no <snip> checking whether to include pspell support... no checking whether to include QDOM support... no checking for libedit readline replacement... no checking for readline support... no checking for recode support... no checking for Sablotron XSL support... yes checking libexpat dir for Sablotron 0.50... no checking for Sablotron in default path... found in /usr/local checking for SablotSetEncoding in -lsablot... yes checking for iconv_open in -lc...
