Aren't you using packages compiled a little while back when
/usr/include/iconv.h did not exist? If so you may have a package saying
that it need -liconv (as recoded in a says gtk-config like script) but now
your system does have /usr/include/iconv.h (but not libiconv.*) so
converters/libiconv/buildlink2.mk only links /usr/include/iconv.h in the
buildlink area, it does not link the libiconv packages includes
and libs, hence the linking is failing.
Try identifying the package concerned and rebuild it.
