Why? glibc contains all encodings you may want. libiconv is meant for
non-glibc platforms.

Read through the INSTALL.generic file included in the source
distribution.

For 32-bit builds, I use a configure command line such as
./configure --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --prefix=/arch/x86-linux/gnu CC="gcc -m32 
-march=i586" CXX="g++ -m32 -march=i586" F77="gfortran -m32 -march=i586" 
FC="gfortran -m32 -march=i586" LDFLAGS="-m32" CPPFLAGS=-Wall
Your mileage may vary.
