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

===> Configuring for pan-0.14.0nb1
[...]
checking for iconv... yes
checking for iconv declaration... 
         extern size_t iconv (iconv_t cd, const char * *inbuf, size_t *inbytesleft, char * *outbuf, size_t *outbytesleft);
checking preferred charset formats for system iconv... not found
configure: error:
	*** The iconv-detect program was unable to determine the
	*** preferred charset formats recognized by your system
	*** iconv library. It is suggested that you install a
	*** working iconv library such as the one found at
	*** ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libiconv
	
*** Error code 1

Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/news/pan
*** Error code 1

This is a compatibility issue which should be fixed.
