[xslt] Compile error on AIX 5.2 - libxslt-1.1.12

[Matt Pichette <matt pichette gmail com>]

I'm having a compile error on AIX 5.2. I've built and configured
libxml with iconv support and pointed it to /usr. No problems on that
compile. When I try to compile with libxslt it chokes on
libexslt/date.c referring to a section in encoding.h which has a and
ifdef'd section in a struct for iconv support. Any ideas?

A member posted the same problem before but there wasn't a response...

The section of encoding.h it chokes on is included below:

typedef xmlCharEncodingHandler *xmlCharEncodingHandlerPtr;
struct _xmlCharEncodingHandler {
    char                       *name;
    xmlCharEncodingInputFunc   input;
    xmlCharEncodingOutputFunc  output;

    iconv_t                    iconv_in;
    iconv_t                    iconv_out;
#endif /* LIBXML_ICONV_ENABLED */
};
