Description:
------------
libxml2 can't be built on windows with libraries from http://pecl2.php.net/downloads/php-windows-builds/ as it is searching for iconv_a.lib;iconv.lib, while libiconv_a.lib;libiconv.lib names are used.

Please backport to PHP_5_2 branch the patch used on head and 5.3: http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/php-src/ext/libxml/config.w32?r1=1.8.6.1&r2=1.8.6.2&pathrev=PHP_5_3

Config for iconv should also be backported, although in this case it's less critical, as library detection is commented.
http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/php-src/ext/iconv/config.w32?r1=1.6&r2=1.7

This bug is filed against PHP 5.2. I confirm it is fixed on PHP 5.3 (after gettting it to compile, bug #45698), as i already found when reporting, but other extensions don't work on it. That's why i'm using 5.2
Any reason for not backporting these patches to the 5.2 branch?

It is frozen, we will stick to the libs we use until now unless there is a security issue.

It is relatively easy to change the file yourself (it may be annoying but also an acceptable pain :).
