glib-2.6.4 fails with iconv.h error. Per some suggestions on some other bug report, I reemerge umerged libiconv (was not on system), reemerged glibc, loggged out and in and retried - same result. I also tried turning iconv USE flag on and off. Error message states that my iconv.h is from libiconv. But I would think that what I did would have fixed this if that was truly the problem. equery belongs /usr/include/iconv.h says it is from glibc as well - not sure how that checks though.

You should have *not* touched libiconv, as it's blocking of glibc, how did you managed to install it?
I don't I installed it. The error message states it is from libiconv but I think not. I reemerged glibc and it placed it there. What makes it think it is from libiconv?
Ooops. I had a libiconv from a php install in local which superseded the glibc one. Have to rebuild the entire system it looks like :(
