Optionally. And GUILE includes parts of libiconv and calls them itself.
I'm just pointing out that this is quite nontrivial to bring up to Emacs
standards in string processing because so many dependencies are
involved, most of them having a rather simplistic view of invalid or
overlong byte sequences and characters outside of the Unicode range.
They don't allow as many character codes as Emacs needs to represent its
various inputs.
