The problem isn't that the apps doesn't start, but that they crash after a while in some specific places (for instance within a function call to libexif which is linked to libintl and libiconv).
However, a recompile of the app seem to fix the problem.
But the question is if there is some option when building libintl whether to include libiconv_set_relocation_prefix or not...

Which version of libintl are the failing applications linked against?

There are currently three active shared libraries, only libintl.so.8 provides libiconv_set_relocation_prefix:

$ nm libintl.so.2 | grep libiconv_set_relocation_prefix
$ nm libintl.so.3 | grep libiconv_set_relocation_prefix
$ nm libintl.so.8 | grep libiconv_set_relocation_prefix
[186] | 0| 0|FUNC |GLOB |0 |UNDEF |libiconv_set_relocation_prefix

Can you provide a specific test case so I can replicate the problem? (Application, use case, etc)

Please file a new bug if this still happens with the most recent release.
