Description:
mysql-proxy is crashing on startup, when LD_PRELOAD_64 is set to prealoadable libiconv object, for example:

/usr/local/libiconv/lib/preloadable_libiconv.so

mysql-proxy was build under this exactl environment.

Backtrace:

/usr/local/solarisstudio12.3/bin/dbx /usr/local/mysql-proxy/bin/mysql-proxy core
For information about new features see `help changes'
To remove this message, put `dbxenv suppress_startup_message 7.9' in your .dbxrc

How to repeat:
Build and install mysql-proxy 64-bit from source, with local libiconv and LD_PRELOAD_64 set to preloadable libiconv.

Run it.

Suggested fix:
unset the LD_PRELOAD_64 environment variable.

Thank you for the report.

I cannot repeat described behavior. Please try current version 0.8.5 and, if problem still exists, send us version of libiconv, compile options you used to build MySQL Proxy and command line you use to start it.
