 According to the forum posts you have the following ports installed:
 
 converters/libiconv
 devel/gettext
 textproc/gsed
 
 textproc/gsed has a dependancy on devel/gettext if the NLS option is
 selected.
 
 The problem you are encountering is that the configure script for
 converters/libiconv is using /usr/local/bin/sed instead of the base systems
 sed.  This is what is causing the libintl.so.9 not found error.
 
 You will need to re-install textproc/gsed before upgrading
 converters/libiconv.  If you don't need NLS support in gsed, then just
 uncheck that option before rebuilding textproc/gsed.
