For a couple of reasons.

First, performance. For a page with a huge pile of links, generating
the hints would take ages.

Second, they're just not needed. They shouldn't be needed usually.
Usual case is that you already see the link on the visible portion
when going into hint mode, then you just press the hint.

The hint mode has been completely redone in the cvs version for Firefox 3 too.
