Is aliases.h really absent? If so, you find a complete tarball, including
aliases.h, at
  http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libiconv/libiconv-1.12.tar.gz

Seems it's named 'aliases2.h':

$ find libiconv-1.12 | grep aliases
libiconv-1.12/lib/genaliases.c
libiconv-1.12/lib/aliases2.h
libiconv-1.12/lib/aliases.gperf
libiconv-1.12/lib/genaliases2.c
libiconv-1.12/gnulib/doc/glibc-headers/aliases.texi

That's on your disk. It's correct in the tarball to which I pointed you:

$ wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/libiconv/libiconv-1.12.tar.gz
$ tar tvfz libiconv-1.12.tar.gz | grep aliases
-rw-r--r-- root/root      8177 2007-11-11 17:47 libiconv-1.12/lib/aliases.gperf
-rw-r--r-- root/root      1120 2005-05-19 19:14 libiconv-1.12/lib/aliases2.h
-rw-r--r-- root/root     69143 2007-11-11 17:47 libiconv-1.12/lib/aliases.h

-rw-r--r-- root/root       375 2007-11-11 17:47 
libiconv-1.12/lib/aliases_extra.h

Where did you download the broken libiconv-1.12 source package?

It's not really broken.
wget http://cudlug.cudenver.edu/GNU/gnu/libiconv/libiconv-1.12.tar.gz

The problem was that I didn't have gperf installed, and while running ./autogen.sh, it seems to try to update that aliases.h file after the gnulib update. So if you don't have gperf, you will end up with aliases.h missing.

I just skipped running ./autogen.sh, and directly run ./configure, and now it works.

Thanks for your help!
