Replying to myself.... the proper incantation is

	PREFER_NATIVE+=iconv

And now cairo builds without complaint. But that makes me wonder about how/why
various additions to PREFER_NATIVE depend on each other. More to the point,
how can I be sure that I have a "complete" set of PREFER_NATIVE+=foo ??

And while I'm confused and asking stupid questions, why is it that pango could
find my native libz without setting PREFER_NATIVE+=zlib ????
