what's "a recent update"? netbsd-1-6 -> netbsd-2-0 or -current?
when are you "encountering some undefined references"? please provide
more precise information when you want others to help you..
there is native iconv() support in netbsd-2-0 and later, so libiconv
package is not needed (and used) anymore. you will need to rebuild all
packages previously using converters/libiconv, though. if this is your
problem, it was discussed several times on various mailing lists since
the support was added to -current.
