That is what I thought also, but I guess that is changing or has changed
in the FreeBSD camp.  I recently posted a problem in this list trying to
compile KDE4 on Dragonfly BSD, which is also a FreeBSD branch.  The only
response I got was 

    "We don't support DF here."

from Martin Wilke <miwi at FreeBSD.org>.

The subject was

    iconv_open failed and other errors compiling kde on bsd

I still have not gotten it to compile.
