Greg, it is because Dillo. That is the only reason. Dillo has been 
chosen by small distributions because it is fast and light. It is based 
on FLTK2, so packagers ship FLTK2 together.

I see no problem in this because FLTK1 and FLTK2 can coexist together 
without any problem. I have both installed in /usr and everything works 
fine. :)
