libglib2.0_0 is the only "GNOME library" in that list.

You think that's bad, but I didn't enable the libproxy KDE4 backend for
a reason. :-)

DBus and GLib are pretty much standard these days, since most low-level
Linux system services use the former, and even Qt uses the latter for
its main loop these days.  Only because we don't need these services on
Cygwin are they not part of the base installation.
