CVS repair

I have been trying for weeks now to compile the CVS version of AbiWord.
I keep running into problems with libiconv. Specifically
libiconv/include/iconv.h which has a pointer in it to libiconv.h which
does not exist. I have edited iconv to point to both libiconv.h.in and
libiconv.h.mscv, the two other files which do exist in that folder. I
have created a link called libiconb.h to libiconv.h.in. Finally I have
deleted libiconv altogether and used the iconv.h from glibc-devel
2.2.2-4mdk. Although the last attempted solution ran further in the
compilation process, it still errors out on:

/var/src/abiword/wv/./text.c:799: undefined reference to
`libiconv_close'
/var/src/abiword/wv/./text.c:801: undefined reference to `libiconv_open'
/var/src/abiword/wv/./text.c:824: undefined reference to `libiconv'
/var/src/abiword/wv/./text.c:846: undefined reference to `libiconv'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[5]: *** [AbiWord_d] Error 1

Not only from abiword/wv/text.c but previous to the shutdown, there is
this same error from a whole series of scripts looking for these
functions.
Is there a specific version of iconv that I should be using that
contains the needed calls, because it is not in the CVS version.
Please fix this, it makes it exceedingly difficult to keep up on writing
help documentation if I do not have the current version, and 0.7.14 is
so outdated at this point that I have had to give up keeping current the
sections I have written.
