I noticed that regenerating binutils/configure or gdb/configure
undoes the libiconv changes done here:

    Yaakov Selkowitz: fixes for in-tree libiconv

            * Makefile.def (libiconv): Define bootstrap=true.
            Mark pdf/html/info as missing.
            (configure-gcc): Depend on all-libiconv.
            (all-gcc): Ditto.
            (configure-libcpp): Ditto.
            (all-libcpp): Ditto.
            (configure-intl): Ditto.
            (all-intl): Ditto.
            * Makefile.in: Regenerate.

    binutils/
            * configure: Regenerate.

    gdb/
            * Makefile.in (LIBICONV): Define.
            (CLIBS): Add LIBICONV.
            * acinclude.m4: Use config/iconv.m4 instead of custom AM_ICONV.
            * configure: Regenerate.


However, that commit does not include any config/iconv.m4/AM_ICONV
change.  Looks like you forgot to attach the config/iconv.m4 patch, and
then only the regeneration bits were pushed (both binutils-gdb git
and gcc svn)?

Thanks,
Pedro Alves
