Well, while that still leaves some things unanswered, but I see now,
that there might be reasons to configure SDL not to use iconv 
(because there are two different implementations)

I'm going to write a workaround to optionally use iconv directly and 
not through SDL.


Another question: 
When I enter "sdl-config --libs" I see, that they put /usr/local/lib into
the rpath. Is that always needed? I'm also writing a library.
How are search paths for libraries normally configured in FreeBSD?
In Gnu+Linux it is /etc/ld.so.conf, but that file doesn't seem to exist.

I have seen, that FreeBSD also accepts the environment variable 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH. But that is just a temporary solution.


If you wonder, what I'm doing: I'm porting my projekt AKFAvatar to
FreeBSD with FreeSBIE.
http://akfavatar.nongnu.org/

The release 0.14.3 is not yet usable with FreeSBIE, but you can check
out the CVS, if you want:
cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/sources/akfavatar co akfavatar
