Aha.  Using 'make -d' shows more detail:

Report bugs to <bug-make AT gnu DOT org>.

Reading makefiles...
Reading makefile `Makefile'...
Reading makefile `../Makeconfig' (search path) (no ~ expansion)...

Got a SIGCHLD; 1 unreaped children.
Reaping losing child 0x0a07a738 PID 492
make[1]: *** [iconvdata/lib] Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Removing child 0x0a07a738 PID 492  from chain.

so the recursion in extra-module.mk (which is expected, though
I don't know how many repeats are normal) is going awry somehow.

I'll look into it more when I don't have a sqiggly baby on my lap
who wants to help.
