opps ... posted before engaging my brian :-(

My Fink install shows ...

$ ls -l /sw/lib/libiconv*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root admin 1111236 2009-09-28 20:17 /sw/lib/libiconv.2.4.0.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin      20 2009-09-28 20:17 /sw/lib/libiconv.2.dylib -> 
libiconv.2.4.0.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin      20 2009-09-28 20:17 /sw/lib/libiconv.dylib -> 
libiconv.2.4.0.dylib
-rw-r--r-- 1 root admin     804 2009-09-28 20:17 /sw/lib/libiconv.la

There *is* a static version, but the build process has missed it. My config.log 
includes ...

Configured with: ../gcc-4.4.2/configure --prefix=/sw --prefix=/sw/lib/gcc4.4 
--mandir=/sw/share/man --infodir=/sw/share/info 
--enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,objc,java --with-gmp=/sw 
--with-libiconv-prefix=/sw --with-ppl=/sw --with-cloog=/sw --with-system-zlib 
--x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib 
--disable-libjava-multilib --with-arch=nocona --with-tune=generic 
--build=i686-apple-darwin10 --host=i686-apple-darwin10 
--target=i686-apple-darwin10

I'm quite unfamiliar with autotools, so if these is additional info that would 
be useful to resolving this, please let me know.
