I suspect you need to adjust the following line render_config.h
// Mapnik input plugins (will need to adjust for 32 bit libs)
#define MAPNIK_PLUGINS "/usr/local/lib64/mapnik/input"
Make sure that this directory has at least the following plugin files:
* postgis.input
* shape.input

To get postgresql to be detected you often need to use:
$ scons PGSQL_INCLUDES=/usr/include/postgresql ...
I'm not sure how critical the iconv failure is, it is mainly for UTF-8
handling. If you want the best foreign character support then you
probably want to be running newer code which uses libicu instead of
iconv.
