Probably (I guess) because iconv is a separate software package which
doesn't come under the Vim license. In particular, changes in iconv need
not be reported to Bram Moolenaar, and updates in iconv may be installed
without updating Vim (especially a Vim compiled with +iconv/dyn).

Caution: Make sure you keep a copy of your iconv etc. libraries
somewhere else than in $VIMRUNTIME (anywhere in the $PATH will probably
suffice) or the next update of Vim could remove them. Also, the
$VIMRUNTIME for the next Vim release will be a different directory,
ending in .../vim74/ or .../vim80/ instead of .../vim73/.


Best regards,
Tony.
