What version of FreeBSD are you on? Your mount_msdosfs binary is looking 
for /lib/libiconv.so which I think is now /lib/libkiconv.so.1 (that's 
what my mount_msdosfs look for anyway). I imagine this is because of the 
recent library version bump, and doing an upgrade of your world (and 
kernel depending how out of date your world is) will get you going.

There is a seatbelt for this. Boot into single user mode. mount -uo rw 
/; mount /usr; vi /etc/fstab. Comment out the offending fstab line and 
then reboot. You'll be able to go multi-user while fixing the problem.
