Error: Target org.macports.configure returned: configure failure: shell command failed (see log for details)

Thanks for the quick - and really helpful response. I've worked through this
but the final command,

sudo port -dv upgrade apr-util


Returned the following error message:

configure: error: iconv support requested, but not found
