>Description:
(The only kernel mod is for IP_FILTER) on this machine

In preparing to load PHP on server, downloaded and built from source libiconv-1.12

after download

./configure
make
make install

noticed core dumps in other builds -- traced to 'csh' and 'tcsh' core-dumping 

lost login ability, but had other window open so I removed /usr/local/lib/libiconv* and csh and tcsh functionality and login ability restored.

Same result with libiconv-1.11 on both Freebsd 7.0 and now this upgraded 7.1 machine.

Box is a Dell 1650, dual 1.4g, 4gb ram, running on top of vmware esxi hypervisor

>How-To-Repeat:

make install from within libiconv-1.1x source directory
>Fix:
Delete the newly installed libiconv libraries from /usr/local/lib
