No so - configure will check for it and set HAVE_ICONV only if the
header file exists (which to me suggests that the library is installed -
I don't know many people who hold on their build systems headers for
libraries they don't have installed.

Don't think that's a correct approach. coding anything to latin1
regardless of the SMSC's preferences or the user's preferences just
because they user did not specificly enable a feature which should be
auto-detected does not sound like a good idea to me.
