Sorry.  This message obviously slipped out before I was done with it.
I blame my spastic index finger.  It likes to press the "y" key.

In any event, what I was going to say above was that "In any event"
it is certainly possible to craft a Cygwin/X installation which only
installs a minimal number of packages.  No one has stepped forward
to do this.

Many of the observations made here are fixable just by having someone
step forward to do the work in Cygwin.  If no one is willing to do that,
that's fine.  You can do related work elsewhere but touting MinGW
programs as a solution to Cygwin problems doesn't work.
