iconvdata headers depend on Makefile why?

All the generated iconvdata headers depend on the makefile. This
produces much spurious recompilation if you change one line. I tried
having it use move-if-change but then it rewrites all the headers and
throws them away on every rebuild (since the timestamps never get
updated). Why is this necessary?
