Agreed with Daniel, that doesn't make sense 

>My libiconv also has GB2312. But my libxml2 does not
have GB2312.

Your libxml2 does not need GB2312. But libxml2 needs to use
the libiconv
that you provide.

The problem *might* be of a sort that I experienced some
time ago and it
might be of interest to Daniel, too (that's why I even
reply here):

The libiconv binding in libxml2 may fall back to the default
OS iconv()
implementation instead of using the explicit libiconv()
functions.
Compiling your own libiconv and telling it to the configure
option of
libxml2 is not enough. If the OS provides its own iconv()
implementation, libxml2 will use that one at runtime and you
will not
have the additional encodings (such as GB2312 in this case).
That is
because libC is typically linked to your binary and libC
already
contains iconv() symbols, but not that many encodings
(depending on OS
and packages installed).

So what can you do?

Force libxml2 to your own libiconv() functions, not the
iconv()
implementation of the OS. This can be done two ways. Version
1: Changing
the iconv() calls of libxml2 to specific libiconv() calls
and force the
"iconv.h" to include the local include file of
libiconv. Version 2: Use
the libiconv plug and preload it for your application so
that the
iconv() calls are overloaded and directed to the libiconv
instead of the
OS iconv() implementation.

To check if this is actually your problem, truss/trace your
process and
check which iconv() function is used by libxml2. If this is
your
problem, you will see jumps into iconv() of libC instead of
libiconv.
