I tried to configure gettext with -D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO=0, and
something changed.

Previous dependencies (without -D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO=0)

- libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll required by
  - bin\libgettextlib-0-20-1.dll
    imported functions: __divdi3, __udivdi3, __umoddi3
  - bin\libgettextpo-0.dll
    imported functions: __udivdi3, __umoddi3
  - bin\libgettextsrc-0-20-1.dll
    imported functions: __udivdi3, __umoddi3
  - bin\libintl-8.dll
    imported functions: __udivdi3, __umoddi3
  - bin\libstdc++-6.dll
  - bin\libtextstyle-0.dll
    imported functions: __divdi3, __udivdi3, __umoddi3
  - bin\msggrep.exe
    imported functions: __udivdi3, __umoddi3
- libstdc++-6.dll required by
  - bin\xgettext.exe
    imported functions: __cxa_guard_acquire, __cxa_guard_release
- libwinpthread-1.dll required by
  - bin\libgettextlib-0-20-1.dll
    imported functions: clock_gettime
  - bin\libstdc++-6.dll

New dependencies (with -D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO=0)

- libgcc_s_sjlj-1.dll required by
  - bin\libgettextlib-0-20-1.dll
    imported functions: __udivdi3, __umoddi3
  - bin\libgettextpo-0.dll
    imported functions: __udivdi3
  - bin\libstdc++-6.dll
- libstdc++-6.dll required by
  - bin\xgettext.exe
    imported functions: __cxa_guard_acquire, __cxa_guard_release
- libwinpthread-1.dll required by
  - bin\libgettextlib-0-20-1.dll
    imported functions: clock_gettime
  - bin\libstdc++-6.dll

So, it doesn't resolve all the dependencies, nevertheless it's a great
hint: thank you Bruno and Vincent!
