>Description:
The "icewm" package doesn't work with NetBSD-current's iconv(3) implementation.
"make configure" aborts with the following error message:

checking for iconv... yes
checking for iconv_open... yes
checking for iconv_close... yes
checking whether iconv converts from ISO-8859-1 to UCS-4//TRANSLIT... no
configure: error: Your implementation of iconv isn't able to perform
*** the codeset conversions required. Check your system configuration.
***
*** You might have to upgrade your C runtime library. If your system is
*** based on the GNU C library (glibc) you'll need version 2.2 or newer.
*** You also have the chance to install GNU libiconv available
*** from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libiconv/.
***
*** Alternatively you could call configure with the --disable-i18n switch.
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/wm/icewm-gnome
*** Error code 1

This is a compatibility issue which should be fixed.

>How-To-Repeat:
cd pkgsrc/wm/icewm
make
