iconv can be accessed in a couple different ways depending on iconv  
version and operating system. So it looks like doxygen is trying to  
use iconv in one way but on your system it wants the other way.

doxygen 1.5.7 builds fine for me on Mac OS X 10.4.11 so I think this  
problem is peculiar to your computer.

Do you have the libiconv port installed and activated? What version?  
It should have been done automatically for you, but use "port  
installed libiconv" to see.

Do you have anything in /usr/local/lib, in particular, a libiconv  
library? If so, remove it, and preferably anything else in /usr/ 
local. It often interferes with MacPorts-installed software.
