You were in /usr/ports/converters/libiconv when you did this, not
devel/libtool.  Is there really no history that indicates what command
you ran?  This would really help, because I cannot reproduce this on any
system I maintain.

Output on all these systems look like the following from:

cd /usr/ports/converters/libiconv
make rmconfig
make

And picking the defaults when prompted via OPTIONS.

Look very, VERY closely at the output difference between what you and I
have shown.  What is "starting dependency check" and "launching child"?

I get the impression you have some /etc/make.conf tweaks that may be
causing problems.  Please provide contents of your /etc/make.conf, and
also provide the exact FreeBSD version you're using (uname -a output
would be best).
