[PATCH] libiconv: skip recipe if using eglibc

[PATCH] libiconv: skip recipe if using eglibc

[Paul Eggleton]

libiconv is provided for use with uClibc - if you build it together with
eglibc (which already PROVIDES virtual/libiconv) you can end up with
dependency problems during do_rootfs.

hmmm ideally we should not need this. since iconv from eglibc should
be drop in replacement packagwise.
but extra net of security does not hurt.
