#30308: libiconv pulls in gawk

Comment(by dluke@…):
It's probably not worth finding and fixing everywhere, but I think it
would be worthwhile to fix for libiconv - since gawk depends on it.
This sequence causes problems:
1. Install libiconv
2. Install gawk
3. force uninstall libiconv
4. realize you want libiconv and try to install it -> this will fail
because libiconv's configure will try to use the now broken gawk
To fix it, you have to uninstall or deactivate gawk (and then libiconv can
be installed and gawk can be reinstalled or reactivated).
If libiconv uses awk instead, 4 works without having to deal with anything
extra.
