Comment (by mouse07410):

 I think it's a bad idea. Because you're going to lose no matter what, as
 long as some (presumably Macports-installed) software need Macports-
 installed libiconv, and other packages (like Haskell installed via ghcup)
 require the system version of libiconv. Because you cannot "select" on a
 per-package basis, like "use system lib for Haskell package, and Macports
 lib for everything else".

 My solution was to manually edit Haskell configuration file, telling it
 where to find the system version of libiconv. Nothing else have me any
 problem, so far.
