Did you also run ldconfig as root? I can't think of any other reason 
the libs cannot be found.

You might also have to install openssl-devel

Did you install the libiconv package yourself? I'm wondering because

libiconv you installed is conflicting with glibc's routines. Perhaps 
you should uninstall libiconv.
