libiconv on WinXP Cygwin

I am in the process of compile GTK+ in my computer and as you know there are 
other libraries that have to be installed in advance.

I am now trying to compile libiconv-1.9.1 but I get an error that has thrown 
me off, that is because the OS I am installing is a WinXP(ensive) [NTFS] 
using CYGWIN. I know, I know, but I am only doing this because a client 
wants one of my applications to work on the bloody OS. I am really a Penguin 
kind of guy, really!



Any way, here is the problem.
