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,
