Created attachment 187368 [details, diff] openttd-0.7.0-fix-shell.patch Fixes the shebang line for the configure script: Now states /bin/bash
fixed. thanks for the bug report.
Created attachment 188071 [details, diff] Dash configure fix (real) Fix configure to work correctly under dash
The above fix is not a fix, it is a big hack. Dash is perfectly capable of running the configure, but has 2 mistakes in iconv detection. Here is the real fix: http://vcs.openttd.org/svn/changeset/16035 Also, we would kindly want to ask to report such problems upstream (http://bugs.openttd.org). This helps us improving the game, as of course such problem is not Gentoo specific. Thank you!
Reopening for the real fix

the work-around is fine for now and since upstream seems to be paying attention, I assume it'll be fixed in 0.7.1 where we'll pick it up.
