Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 I'm not comfortable second-guessing the developer of libiconv on how it
 should function. If anything, such a change would only fix doxygen within
 MacPorts. It would not fix doxygen outside of MacPorts, since Apple's
 libiconv still varies on Tiger vs. Leopard. Such a change might also break
 other ports, or at least cause them to need to be recompiled, and the only
 mechanism we have in MacPorts for causing that to happen would be to bump
 the revision of every port that needs libiconv, so that's a bit of a mess.
 The correct solution is for doxygen to correctly detect the function
 prototype of the libiconv that is currently in use, just like all other
 libiconv-using software needs to.
