gdb always needed the shared lib in libiconv2
$ cygcheck /usr/bin/gdb.exe | grep iconv
D:\cygwin64\bin\cygiconv-2.dll
$ cygcheck -f /usr/bin/cygiconv-2.dll
libiconv2-1.16-2
but is seems the last versions are also calling
the program that is packaged separately
$ cygcheck -f /usr/bin/iconv.exe
libiconv-1.16-2
this dependency is more difficult to catch
and it was missed when GDB was packaged

Marco
