Well, but for the moment we need some kind of fix.

If Akio would use buildlink3.mk, usual builtin.mk result would be applied.
That might allow overriding of USE_BUILTIN.iconv for NetBSD's without 
charset.alias.

Further: it looks that it searches for libiconv - so they might know about the
conflicting charset.alias which is tried to prevent by patch-ab …

Simply patching the own charset.alias out and adding a hard requirement to
converters/libiconv is no solution because of the side effects.

Other proposals?
