Unless someone knows a good reason to avoid use of system iconv on
some platforms, I would have it default to using system iconv
(possibly in libc), and not distinguishing between system-provided
libiconv and user-installed libiconv.
There would be a --with-included-iconv analogous to the existing
--with-included-gettext.
