Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 Again, please remember to use WikiFormatting so your posts are legible.

 There is no incompatibility between libiconv and coreutils. There is
 merely an installation problem on your machine. I think I have identified
 it, based on your list of installed ports. I see you have coreutils
 installed for x86_64; this is expected on Snow Leopard and later. But you
 have libiconv installed for i386 ppc; this is expected on Leopard and
 earlier but not expected on Snow Leopard and later; it should be installed
 for i386 x86_64. Why did this happen? Presumably universal_archs is set to
 i386 ppc in macports.conf. And why is this? Perhaps because this
 macports.conf originated on Leopard or earlier with MacPorts 1.8 or
 earlier. Or perhaps you manually set universal_archs this way. Either way,
 at minimum, universal_archs needs to be set to x86_64 i386 in
 macports.conf. But it sounds like your macports.conf may be out of date,
 so you should spend some time comparing macports.conf with
 macports.conf.default, and adopting any other changes in the default file
 that you don't specifically want to override. Finally, you'll need to
 rebuild all ports shown in the installed list that have archs i386 ppc so
 that they get rebuilt as i386 x86_64. They probably need to be rebuilt in
 a specific order, and it may be easiest to forcibly uninstall these ports,
 then install them again with the universal variant.
