Well, I'll try that, but this is a fresh install of Centos 5, not a custom-hacked OS, and I would think that git should build out of the box on it. I checked and there is no iconv package (rpm). I really don't want to have to temporarily rename a header. I can't hand this out to the rest of the company, some of whom do not have root access to be able to rename header files.
