Thank you Daiki. BTW the error still persists...

Here's what I did:

- I added the Devel/patch package to Cygwin in order to apply the patch

- I added the Devel/automake package to Cygwin since in a first
attempt make install said:
   'aclocal-1.14' is missing on your system.
   You should only need it if you modified 'acinclude.m4' or
   'configure.ac' or m4 files included by 'configure.ac'.

- I deleted the folders ~/out and ~/src

- I compiled iconv successfully

- I extracted the gettext source code from the original archive and
applied the patch:
$ patch -p1 < ../0001-Fix-AC_CHECK_DECLS-usage.patch
(Stripping trailing CRs from patch; use --binary to disable.)
patching file gettext-runtime/m4/intl.m4

- I called configure with the parameters I wrote yesterday

- I called make install
At this point I received a lot of
