Here's what I did to recover:

1. Deinstall lang/gawk
This is necessary so that ports don't try to use it.

2. Reinstall devel/libtool with UNAME_r=9.0-RELEASE
Ports using autotools call libtool to know if they should build shared
libraries. But libtool disables shared libraries for freebsd1*. You
can check what libtool will tell to other ports by doing:
    libtool --config | grep build_libtool_libs
To have shared libraries, this variable must be set to "yes".

3. Reinstall converters/libiconv
Now, libiconv.so.3 is back.

At this point, my installed ports were running fine. I never
reinstalled gettext so it never broke; you may have to.
