 Hi,
 
 Please keep in mind that iconv is contributed code from another
 supplier of the data.  If he wrote the manual page with a local
 locale(7).  I think we are not to 'blame' for this. However, it
 might be interesting to poke the iconv maintainer(s).
 
 We have a locale(1)...  Perhaps this is more a ports issue in the
 end..
 
 cheers,
 Remko

 We cannot do much about this since iconv is in the ports collection.
 It's not really a bug that we don't have a locale(7), the bug is that
 iconv(1) refers to it (probably because it exists on Linux).

I am sorry, iconv is contributed code which we cannot 
change.  Please inform the authors of iconv so that 
this 'might' get changed. 

Close the PR since FreeBSD cannot do anything about 
this.
