Because they don't. Simple.
And I don't like the idea of forcing into system gettext and libiconv, as they
aren't needed for *all* the software out there, you can still have many
packages without using them. I really needed to install them just for glib2
initially, and I was having already a few packages installed for example
subversion.
And I'm in ideas of "the least, the better" wrt dependencies.
