 On Cywgin, the gdmodule spkg requires libiconv.  I think we have two
 choices for handling this:

 1. Making sure that libiconv is always installed in the system Cygwin
 environment.  We can probably have control over this if we include the
 Cygwin install with Sage.

 2. Add a libiconv spkg that is only installed if we are in Cygwin.  Note
 that this would probably amount to including it in all source tarballs.

 Once libiconv is present, we need to patch Setup.py in gdmodule to add
 libiconv to the list of required libraries.

 I'll put up an spkg for libiconv and gdmodule here shortly.
