Here's some information from a while ago: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2006-December/031501.html I didn't get any useful information since then and still have to use a workaround of doing any mount as root to get iconv initialized first and then all subsequent user mounts are successful. While on one hand this seems like only a minor annoyance, on the other hand it indicates a problem in iconv internal workings and this should be considered a bug as this breaks a user-mount feature. Probably a PR is due here, I was just too lazy to open it when I first hit the problem. -- Andriy Gapon
