Configure error

I'm the port maintainer for ftp/proftpd. I'm struggling with getting an 
upgrade out. The problem I'm having is they added a new option which requires 
libiconv. Autoconf looks for iconv.h, can't find it in /usr/local/include and 
the build errors out when it can't link. I googled the problem and found that 
autoconf by default doesn't look in usr/local/include even if it's in the 
path. So, my question is what to put in the makefile or what to patch in the 
sources to make autoconf pick up that header? Any help would be appreciated.
