After playing a bit with options, it seems that:

1. gettext-runtime
I did not see a configure option to disable NLS support in ImageMagick

2. glib, pcre
They are not always needed indeed, in my limited options configuration test[1], LQR needs it at least (I suppose others, like PDF or SVG, would too).

3. python
I suppose a dependency brought it?
