Comment (by ryandesign):

 That's a new one for me.

 It's normal that /usr/lib/libiconv.la does not exist. It's also normal on
 OS X 10.9 and later (and I see you're on 10.13) that
 /opt/local/lib/libiconv.la does not exist, and indeed that most .la files
 do not exist; MacPorts deliberately deletes them because their presence
 causes certain problems.

 So the question is why your build is trying to find /usr/lib/libiconv.la,
 or indeed any part of libiconv, since as far as I know libiconv is not a
 direct dependency of graphviz.

 Do you by chance have anything installed in /usr/local or /sw?

 Do you have any .la files in /opt/local/lib? (`ls -l /opt/local/lib/*.la`)
 A couple ports do override the MacPorts default and keep them around,
 which is fine, but let's make sure there aren'y any there that shouldn't
 be there.
