See the commit made 3 days ago to glib20 port.  Of particular interest
to you are these 3 lines from devel/glib20/Makefile:

# iconv:wchar_t - our iconv in base doesn't support utf-8 -> wchar_t (boooo)
# (wchar_t is used by glibmm, rawtherapee triggered this)
USES=           gettext gmake iconv:wchar_t pathfix pkgconfig shebangfix perl5
