You could try my port from
http://www.markus-hennecke.de/ports_en.html#mcabber

I tested it here on amd64. The help files are not found and unicode
characters are displayed as hex values prefixed by \u. I am away the
next few days, so if someone wants to look into the issue with the help
files he is welcome. But I think there will be no fix for the unicode
problem unless there is a ncurses with unicode support either in ports
or in the base system. Got no time to test the pgp support either, SSL
connection to the jabber server seems to work.

Best Regards,
