Comment:

 I've not get any feedback from the iconv developers, but Ralf Wildenhues,
 a libtool developer, was most helpful when I posted this to the libtool
 mailing list. libtool <at> gnu.org.

 With a few tricks it is possible to iconv to build the library, though it
 requires hacking of an auto-generated file, and to run modified commands
 manually, which may be difficult to implement as a Sage patch.

 A failed build log, which was created outside of Sage, can be found at
