The test-striconveh.c test was extended on 2009-09-05 to test also the
conversion from ASCII to ISO-8859-1 with invalid input. This test fails
on Solaris 8, 9, 10 with the native (non-GNU) Solaris iconv because it
is not able to report invalid input at least in this case.
This fixes it by undefining HAVE_ICONV in this configuration.
