Building GCC (latest revision) on OS X 10.11.1 here, using the command line:
../gccx/configure --with-gmp="/opt/local" --with-mpfr="/opt/local" --with-mpc="/opt/local" --with-libiconv-prefix="/opt/local" --with-pkgversion="GCCX" --program-transform-name='s/^gcc$/gccx/; s/^g++$/g++x/' --enable-languages=c
Followed build instructions exactly, and getting this error:

After investigating `gcc/Makefile`, it seems that the `BUILD_CPPLIB` variable does not include $(LIBICONV), since it is in a stage1 bootstrap at the time of the error. The relevant section is preceded by
# For stage1 and when cross-compiling use the build libcpp which is
# built with NLS disabled. For stage2+ use the host library and
# its dependencies.
Yet clearly the stage1 build of `build/genmatch` is referencing libcpp, which uses symbols from libiconv. So something is amiss here.
