gcc problem on Solaris

I just installed gcc from the latest package at sunfreeware.com using pkgadd. I write a simple 'Hello World!' program to test it. I try to compile it and I get this error:

Code:
rockstar# gcc hello.c -o hello
ld.so.1: gcc: fatal: libiconv.so.2: open failed: No such file or directory
Killed

I set my LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable:

Code:
rockstar# setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/lib/

Get the same error. I check /usr/lib/ and libiconv.so.2 isn't there anyway. Is the package I found at sunfreeware.com the official package to install or is there a better one out there? I assume there would be a better package that comes with all the .so files I need to compile a simple file like this.

OK, I'm an idiot. gcc is already installed in /usr/sfw/bin/gcc and is fully functional. Admins can close this post.
