Ok, thanks, then I'll just document it. Actually, I also think this 
behaviour is more intuitive, that's why I implemented it in this way. As 
for iconv, it needs a portbuild run and in first phase ports will still 
use GNU libiconv but BSD iconv will make its way into base if it passes 
the exp-run.
