Description:
------------
PHP runs great with the exception of iconv. I've created a test program that uses libiconv.so.2.5.0 with expected results

CLI command:

>./php ./test.php
Original : This is the Euro symbol '?'.
TRANSLIT : Segmentation Fault (core dumped)

needed to do preload, runs great
 [2010-10-13 12:26 UTC] reggaedancer at ymail dot com
Hello, 
I have the same issue on Solaris 10 x86,
PHP 5.3.3
after running iconv PHP script, PHP crashed and created a core dump.
What do you mean by "needed to preload".
How can I fix this issue ?
 [2010-10-13 15:12 UTC] wes at jdrtech dot com
libiconv should provide the preloadable library preloadable_libiconv.so.

I edited apachectl:

--------------------------------------

 case $ARG in
    start)
        LD_PRELOAD_64=/fcgi/lib/preloadable_libiconv.so
        export LD_PRELOAD_64

        if [ $RUNNING -eq 1 ]; then
            echo "$0 $ARG: httpd (pid $PID) already running"
            continue
        fi
------------------------------------

of course your library location may differ, probably /usr/local/lib and LD_PRELOAD_32 if your using 32 bit

good luck

Ubelievable!!
It really works.
I just added:
LD_PRELOAD_32=/usr/local/lib/preloadable_libiconv.so
export LD_PRELOAD_32
and the Apache/PHP with iconv is working and not crashing anymore.

I tried to use disable_functions in PHP to avoid iconv,
but this preload solution is great.
Thank you very much for your help.
