How is this?

    (define* (libiconv-if-needed #:optional (target (%current-target-system)))
      "Return either a libiconv package specification to include in a dependency
    list for platforms that have an incomplete libc, or the empty list.  If a
    package needs iconv ,@(libiconv-if-needed) should be added."
      ;; POSIX C libraries provide iconv.  Platforms with an incomplete libc
      ;; without iconv, such as MinGW, must return the then clause.
      (if (mingw-target? target)
          `(("libiconv" ,libiconv))
          '()))
