[Buildroot] build fails with current uclibc

[softa at ttechgroup.com <softa@ttechgroup.com>]

Hi,

The problem is in *iconv* binary for target, wchar support seems to be ok.
For successful compilation, remove iconv from makefile. I spend 1 day 
digging in this problem and finaly decide to disable iconv in the target 
platform.
Attached is patch that must be copied into buildroot/toolchain/uClibc/ dir.

BR,
Assen Stoyanov
