[xml] can't figure out how to build native Windows 'iconv'

[David Lawless <david_lawless flumedata com>]

Hello,

Searched for nearly an hour and dug in the release
tree and I can't find any clear information on how to
compile GNU 'libiconv' natively under Windows with
Visual Studio 2008 and/or 2010.  Would like to
build a native 'libxml2' that includes 'iconv', so
this appears to be a prerequisite.  Need 64-bit.

Have no reservations about using CYGWIN for
building so long as the 'cl' compiler is used and
no CYGWIN dependencies are present in the DLLs.

'nmake' is fine as well as is a VS project, though I
dislike the using the IDE for anything other than
debugging if it can be avoided.

Any help, links, etc. would be appreciated.

Thanks,

David
