Hello,

I just tried running `brew upgrade` to upgrade my formulae, and it crashed on installing git. I've tried installing it separately, but that gives me the exact same error message, which you can see [in the gist I just posted][brew_error_gist].

It seems like there's some error with libiconv, but I can't figure out what. Running `brew install libiconv` doesn't seem to do anything at all (the command generates no output).

Oh, and here's my `brew doctor` output:

```
Some "config" scripts were found in your path, but not in system or Homebrew folders.

`./configure` scripts often look for *-config scripts to determine if software packages
are installed, and what additional flags to use when compiling and linking.

Having additional scripts in your path can confuse software installed via Homebrew if
the config script overrides a system or Homebrew provided script of the same name.

/usr/local/MacGPG2/bin
gpg-error-config ksba-config libassuan-config libgcrypt-config libusb-config pth-config
```
