libgit2 1.7.1 build failure at link time: undefined symbol libiconv

Attempting to build libgit2 fails:

Digging deeper, it fails at exactly this part of the build process:

cd /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_devel_libgit2/libgit2/work/build/tests/libgit2 && /opt/local/bin/cmake -E cmake_link_script CMakeFiles/libgit2_tests.dir/link.txt --verbose=ON

I tried manually adding variations of -l /opt/local/lib/libiconv.dylib (-l libiconv.dylib, -l libiconv) to CMakeFiles/libgit2_tests.dir/link.txt without success:

/opt/local/bin/cmake -E cmake_link_script CMakeFiles/libgit2_tests.dir/link.txt --verbose=ON -v
ld: library '/opt/local/lib/libiconv.dylib' not found

This one is quite surprising, because libiconv is installed on my system:

$ port installed libiconv
The following ports are currently installed:
  libiconv @1.17_0+universal (active)
$ file /opt/local/lib/libiconv.*
/opt/local/lib/libiconv.2.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures: [x86_64:\012- Mach-O 64-bit x86_64 dynamically linked shared library, flags:<NOUNDEFS|DYLDLINK|TWOLEVEL|NO_REEXPORTED_DYLIBS>] [\012- arm64:\012- Mach-O 64-bit arm64 dynamically linked shared library, flags:<NOUNDEFS|DYLDLINK|TWOLEVEL|NO_REEXPORTED_DYLIBS>]
/opt/local/lib/libiconv.a:       Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures: [x86_64:\012- current ar archive random library] [\012- arm64:\012- current ar archive random library]
/opt/local/lib/libiconv.dylib:   symbolic link to libiconv.2.dylib

I thought it might be related to the recent change ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/commit/abd25f7f4a164c7ab2a8a8146fcbd746f45035a0 , reverting that commit didn't seem to affect anything.
