ghc from macports was build against macports's iconv, which works fine
with gtk2 from macports.

The official ghc is linked and links against /usr/lib/libiconv.dylib,
which makes a problem as soon as -L/opt/local/lib is added by some cabal
package. But this can be fixed by adding -L/usr/lib as first argument to
ghc.
