Thanks, Ralf!

I did run three tests on x86_64-unknown-freebsd8.2 to assess the patch:  
First, I ran a full bootstrap of the failing scenario (which depends on
how/where libiconv is installed) configured with --disable-rpath; then I
ran the same without --disable-rpath; and finally I ran a test without
--disable-rpath but your patch applied and autoconf rerun for libjava.

The second test, which is default behavior, failed.  The first (my
current workaround) and third (your change) succeeded.

Long story short, I am happy to report that your patch fixes bootstrap.

As far as I can tell, it would be good to backport this to GCC 4.5 
which is the latest release.  Personally I don't see a need to backport
farther, but of course others may disagree.
