yours FreeBSD 4.11???:
if [ ! -d /usr/local/bin ] ; 
then /bin/sh ../autoconf/mkinstalldirs /usr/local/bin ; fi
case "freebsd4.11" in  hpux*) cc  `if test -n ''; then  /usr/local/bin; 
fi` iconv.o ../srclib/libicrt.a -L/usr/local/lib -liconv  -o iconv;;  
*) /bin/sh /usr/local/bin/libtool15 --mode=link cc  `if test -n ''; 
then  /usr/local/bin; fi` 
iconv.o ../srclib/libicrt.a /usr/local/lib/libiconv.la  -o iconv;;  
esac

mine FreeBSD 5.3:
if [ ! -d /usr/local/bin ] ; 
then /bin/sh ../autoconf/mkinstalldirs /usr/local/bin ; fi
case "freebsd5.3" in  hpux*) cc  `if test -n ''; then  /usr/local/bin; 
fi` iconv.o ../srclib/libicrt.a -L/usr/local/lib -liconv  -o iconv;;  
freebsd*) /bin/sh /usr/local/bin/libtool15 --mode=link cc  `if test -n 
''; then  /usr/local/bin; fi` 
iconv.o ../srclib/libicrt.a ../lib//libiconv.la  -o iconv;;  
*) /bin/sh /usr/local/bin/libtool15 --mode=link cc  `if test -n ''; 
then  /usr/local/bin; fi` 
iconv.o ../srclib/libicrt.a /usr/local/lib/libiconv.la  -o iconv;;  
esac


Your running FreeBSD 4.11 it looks like, it installs fine on FreeBSD 5.3 
Stable. I'm cc'ing th maintainer gnome at FreeBSD.org for you to let him
know there may be a problem on 4.11 with the port.
