to partially answer my own question: running gnulib-tool --import iconv in a directory with configure.ac as in https://github.com/sagemath/sage/blob/develop/configure.ac does install config.rpath into config/ (and other things, too) I am not sure, however, what exactly are the minimum requirments for configure.ac and other setup parts, perhaps, to allow this.
