1. Here is a check of the other packages that guile requires at=20
run-time:

$ cygcheck -c crypt gmp libltdl3
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
crypt                1.1-1          OK
gmp                  4.3.1-3        OK
libltdl3             1.5.27a-1      OK

$ cygcheck -c libintl2 libintl3 libintl8
Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
libintl2             0.12.1-3       OK
libintl3             0.14.5-1       OK
libintl8             0.17-11        OK


2. Another problem is that guile-doc 1.8.7, unlike guile-doc 1.8.2,
does not include the 'info' documentation files:

$ cygcheck -l guile-doc
