Failure to link GDB 7.6

[Eli Zaretskii <eliz at gnu dot org>]

On GNU/Linux, I get the following link error trying to build GDB 7.5:

It uses libiconv I built myself:

  checking how to link with libiconv... /home/e/eliz/lib/libiconv.so -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/home/e/eliz/lib
  checking for iconv declaration... install-shextern size_t iconv (iconv_t cd, char * *inbuf, size_t *inbytesleft, char * *outbuf, size_t *outbytesleft);

What is wrong with my libiconv?  (There's no other libiconv on this
system, which is why I built my own some time ago.)
