You have a strange library layout, which is definitely different from
the one I'm seeing usually. This is what you should have, with recent
ports/packages:

/usr/local/lib [0]# ll *iconv*
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1107752 Dec 11 18:50 libiconv.a
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel       17 Dec 11 18:50 libiconv.so@ ->
libiconv.so.2.5.1
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel       17 Dec 11 18:50 libiconv.so.2@ ->
libiconv.so.2.5.1
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  1072522 Dec 11 18:50 libiconv.so.2.5.1
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel       13 Dec 11 18:50 libiconv.so.3@ ->
libiconv.so.2


Have you tried rebuilding the libiconv port? Just to make sure you have
the correct files.

Also you could run "pkg which /usr/local/lib/libbiconv.so.2" and see
which package installed that one. I suspect that that libbiconv library
there has been installed by some other port and is unrelated.
