[oe] glib-2.0: do_compile, angstrom: gcc-cross ver.

[lukas gorris]

Hello,

I have just ran a build in org.openembedded.dev commit
fd049a8b9904348456b26ffa7ff25d834c477c6b and noticed a bug.

I am using armv7a based htcleo machine configuration and
angstrom-2008.1 distro. because angstrom still selects obsolete
gcc-cross versions for armv7a (see
http://bugs.openembedded.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5435#c21 ) I bump it
manually like this

PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-cross = "4.4.4"
PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-cross-initial = "4.4.4"
PREFERRED_VERSION_gcc-cross-intermediate = "4.4.4"
PREFERRED_VERSION_binutils-cross = "2.20.1"

compile error from glib-2.0

| gconvert.c:55:2: error: #error GNU libiconv not in use but included
iconv.h is from libiconv

full log:

Khem said it's because my host lacks libiconv. Unfortunately I can't
test it now. Is this related to following commit?

211fb05d665e95192cf4d4b81dfa89fde04359cf

Maybe it's good to add libiconv in bitbake host sanity checker or
require it in some other way like installing a libiconv-native ?

Can somebody look into updating gcc-cross in angstrom for armv7 ?
(Hope this the right list for angstrom topic)

Thanks

Lukas
