Re: gd.trm issue for mingw-gcc-4.3.0 building

[Tatsuro M. <tma...@ya...>]

Hello Ethan A Merritt

cc. Petr Mikulik  and Pierre Joye

Considering that the libfontconfig is not required for previous version of libgd and iconv is optional
for libdgd-2.0.36RC1, I have considered the following patch to  makefile.mgw. 

Regards

Tatsuro
