Comment:

 You could try asking those questions on a MacPorts mailing list. But
 you're pretty much in uncharted and unsupported territory. You're trying
 to make MacPorts do things it's not designed to do. Doesn't mean it won't
 work, but it may be hard to find someone who will know how to help you.

 libiconv is 4.4MB installed on my system; zlib is 672K. It may be possible
 to get your distribution to use the system libiconv and zlib instead, but
 it may not be worth the effort just to save 5MB. 2.3MB of that is static
 ".a" libraries, by the way; you could safely delete all the static
 libraries before packaging to save that space.
