I'm a glutton for punishment, and to prove it, I got myself a server and tried to build the entire LAMP stack myself. Then I ran into a problem where during a configure/make/install of httpd, I found that my compiled apr-util seemed to be not picking up apr-iconv properly. The sequence is:
- configure/make/install apr-1.4.5.
- configure/make/install apr-iconv-1.2.1
- configure/make/install apr-util-1.3.12
- configure/make/install httpd-2.2.21
All the apr's built fine, but when I tried to "make" httpd, I got this message:

The only part of the configuration I'm really not sure about is the with-apr-iconv setting in the apr-util configure script. It seems weird to reference another source directory instead of the shared libraries. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
