Looks like we can finally close this bug now that have the real glibc:
The current DCMTK Snapshot now supports three alternative character set
conversion libraries: libiconv, libicu and the iconv() function from stdlibc:

thanks
tagging #701802 with patch, since issues in debian are resolved.
Upstream would need to use only the portable iconv API.

Some update on the issue. Using iconv.h from debian is a little harder
than first thought. DCMTK is actually using some non-standard
extension from libiconv.h:

Thanks for reporting this issue, but it is a known issue that is already
listed in the (still internal) DCMTK bug tracker as Feature #368.

PS: I'm one of the main DCMTK developers and also the person who added
libiconv support to the DCMTK some time ago. Also see this blog

Dear maintainer,
The current debian package does not include internationalization
support. For this, it needs to be compiled against libiconv. In
Debian, we do not ship seperate libiconv/libcharset libraries, because
our glibc does already provide this.
Hi Reinhard,
I have the same feeling like you that I do not really like the static
linking against a convenience copy of libiconv. We should rather
consider convincing upstream to enable proper dynamic linking.
Thanks for your sharing your investigations with us anyway
Andreas.
