I believe the reason was something along the lines of galeon was
dependent upon a version of mozilla that had RC bugs, and both were
removed but mozilla made it back in.  If you want to know why galeon
hasn't made it back, you can always check update excuses:

If it makes you feel any better, the Woody release notes still say that
galeon is a new browser appearing in Woody.
