As Frediano said, you need to link to a real iconv library. You evidently
used the --disable-libiconv configure option.

If you want to use GNU iconv and "hkbig5" is the name that HP/UX uses,
that name needs to be added to src/tds/alternative_character_sets.h as an
alias for what GNU iconv calls "BIG-5". You'll also have to regenerate
encodings.h by re-running encodings.pl.

HTH.
