Hi,

(Please Cc: me when replying, I'm not subscribed.)

I created a fresh FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE amd64 jail.  No installed ports.

I cannot build devel/gettext.  Does anyone experience the same problem?
I invariably run into the following problem:

libtool: link: cc -shared  -fPIC -DPIC  .libs/bindtextdom.o .libs/dcgettext.o .libs/dgettext.o .libs/gettext.o .libs/finddomain.o .libs/hash-string.o .libs/loadmsgcat.o .libs/localealias.o .libs/textdomain.o .libs/l10nflist.o .libs/explodename.o .libs/dcigettext.o .libs/dcngettext.o .libs/dngettext.o .libs/ngettext.o .libs/plural.o .libs/plural-exp.o .libs/localcharset.o .libs/threadlib.o .libs/lock.o .libs/relocatable.o .libs/langprefs.o .libs/localename.o .libs/log.o .libs/printf.o .libs/setlocale.o .libs/version.o .libs/xsize.o .libs/osdep.o .libs/intl-compat.o   -L/usr/local/lib /usr/local/lib/libiconv.a  -O2   -Wl,-soname -Wl,libintl.so.9 -o .libs/libintl.so.9
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libiconv.a(iconv.o): relocation R_X86_64_32S against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/local/lib/libiconv.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
