Sorry for my stubborness, I want to compile directly from src instead of ports.

I have read the Makefile there, only to find they use a "--with-libiconv=gnu" configure argument. I don't know why theirs can succeed, while my "--with-libiconv=/usr/local" can't help pass the configuration step. :(

Btw, the various patches in that URL are all irrelavent to libiconv problem.
