Just so I understand, this will allow clisp to be built without the GUI 
modules?

Off-topic: Not to be picky, but 'seperate' is spelled 'separate'.

$ grep seperate clisp-2.44-1.cygport clisp-2.44-1.cygwin.patch
clisp-2.44-1.cygport:# for the seperate clisp-x packages:
clisp-2.44-1.cygport:   # use the linkkit for the seperate modules
clisp-2.44-1.cygwin.patch:+* removed the GDI module to a seperate 
clisp-gdi package
clisp-2.44-1.cygwin.patch:+* prepare for another new seperate clisp-x 
package with the new-clx and gtk2 modules

More on-topic: The Cygwin clisp (2.43 and 2.44) fails to pass the test 
suite in the "tests" subdirectory:

$ cd clisp-2.44-1/src/clisp-2.44/tests/
$ clisp -q
