I built rdesktop manually earlier today.  I haven't tried the port so
please excuse any thing that's been gone over before or doesn't
apply to the port.  It appears rdesktop's configure isn't picking
up that iconv.h is in /usr/local/include.  Running configure with
CPPFLAGS set to look there for headers fixed it, i.e.

    $ CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include ./configure ...

Note that without CPPFLAGS set like so configure reports,

    checking iconv.h usability... no
    checking iconv.h presence... no
    ...
    checking for iconv... yes


Looking at the code they're using two macros to control iconv
related things, HAVE_ICONV and HAVE_ICONV_H. The check for
HAVE_ICONV_H in the autoconf configure input doesn't appear
to use the setting of the --with-libiconv-prefix switch to
configure so needs the CPPFLAGS setting to look in /usr/local/include
and set the HAVE_ICONV_H.
