To avoid git pollution like you said some times, but seems that here is 
not applicable.

syslinux was used for isohybrid
cdrkit was used for mkisofs
mkinitcpio-nfs-utils was used for older mkinitcpio that -b does not work 
propertly, needed for archiso_pxe_nbd
nbd was used for older mkinitcpio that -b does not work propertly, 
needed for archiso_pxe_nbd
pwgen was used by mkarchiso/Makefile in ages were iso label was 
ARCH_ramdomchars (about two years ago)
