That seems to be a problem now.
Is there someone able to support this?

I got now problems building bleadperl. 
At first configure isn't able to find libiconv, because there is no libiconv.a:
[...]
No -lPW.
No -lx.
No -liconv.
No -lutil.
Found -lcygipc.
[...]

How to create a valid libiconv.a or against what should i link instead of
libiconv.a?

Second problem is during 'make' of bleadperl which works o.k 
before i installed the patched binutils && libtool && automake,
but i'm not sure if it belongs to binutils:
