Mintty requires some shell, hopefully that point cannot be argued.

Having said that, Bash is the obvious candidate as its the only login shell

While adding Bash as a dependency could be somewhat misleading, It would argue
it is more misleading to say that it requires no shell, which is the current
state of affairs.
