Subject:   strange ports problem: Undefined symbol "iconv_open"

I'd post this to freebsd-ports, but this is obviously a problem with my
machine, and not the port...

I'm trying to install /usr/ports/x11-toolkits/py-wxPython. When I import
the wxPython module, however, I get this ImportError:

| File "/usr/local/lib/python2.1/site-packages/wxPython/__init__.py", line
| 20, in ?
|     import wxc
|     ImportError: /usr/X11R6/lib/libwx_gtk.so: Undefined symbol "iconv_open"

On a different FreeBSD machine, everything installs flawlessly.

The md5 hashes of libwx_gtk.so are identical. I pkg_deleted every
Python-related port and re-installed from scratch, but get the same
error.

Does anybody have any suggestions on how I begin troubleshooting
this problem?
