Description:
------------
configure --with-iconv=/path/to/iconv picks up the host iconv

ext/iconv/config.m4 does not take the case that a dir is given into account.

I fixed this by adding $PHP_ICONV to the for loop. This patch makes the code identical to a similar snippet of code in acinclude.m4

The problem has been detected in 5.2.13 but I verified the 5.2 snap from today and the problem is still there.

Attached patch fixes the problem

I'm having this same problem with php 5.3.5, and this patch isn't fixing it.

When using the options
--with-iconv --with-iconv-dir=/usr/local/iconv

I still get
checking if iconv is glibc's... yes

but it should be using libiconv

Please try using this snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php5.4-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:

  http://windows.php.net/snapshots/

Breifly looking PHP 5.5's configure script, it seems ok.
