Log Message:
gtexinfo: override the iconv test on macOS

Upstream configure (via gnulib) has started to reject the native Apple
libiconv because it has bugs related to character transliteration.
This leads to PLIST errors. See for rationale:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2024-05/msg00375.html

The correct fix is probably to do:

.if ${OPSYS} == "Darwin"
USE_GNU_ICONV=          yes
.endif

But this would introduce a new dependency on converters/libiconv.
I'll leave it to someone more familiar with the implications
to decide.

This commit leaves the broken status quo and is in line with
other pkgsrc packages that have the same workaround, such as
devel/gettext and textproc/libunistring.
