You can check with ldd. On one of my systems, I get:
$ ldd /usr/local/bin/svn | grep iconv
0593a000 25a19000 rlib 0 17 0 /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so.5.0
If Subversion can't find an iconv() implementation on your system,
you could also try installing apr-iconv from apr.apache.org and
then recompiling subversion. You can pass the --with-apr-iconv
option to Subversion's configure script to point it to your
apr-iconv installation. See also the INSTALL file which comes with
Subversion's source code distribution. It also talks about apr-iconv.
