This seems to be related to having a macports install of libiconv. The 
compile step for sysutils.c puts the macport include header before 
/usr/local/include but the link step for libR doesn't - in fact it 
doesn't include a -L for the macport directory at all. So there is an an 
inconsistency in the expected symbols. (Why the macport version defines 
libiconv_open instead of iconv_open I have no idea).
