Runtime requirements:
  see 'setup.hint'

Build Dependencies:
  gcc-2.95.3-5 or later
  binutils-20020706-2 or later 
  gettext-0.11.2-2 or later
  gettext-devel-0.11.2-2 or later
  openssl-devel-0.96d-1 or later

This is implicit as both gettext and gettext-devel requires libiconv2.
I've also always thought of the Build dependency list as an extension to
the runtime list, but this isn't obvious after I changed it to only be a
ref. to setup.hint.
 
I'll reinsert the runtime list and add it to the build list.

libiconv2 is the run-time only portion of libiconv. The main libiconv (no 2)
package is required at link-time.

Sorry, yes my mistake I also have the libiconv package installed.
Somehow I installed it without updating the README file, time to review
my release procedure 8-(

Thanks for the report I'll update the README file for the next wget
release.

Hey, no problem - build time deps must be a fairly hard thing to keep track of,
unless you keep uninstalling/installing bits of Cygwin.
