There are still too many requires for this Version -9.

Version -7 only required 'cygwin' and 'bash'.  This is perfect.

Version -9 requires: cygwin bash coreutils font-bitstream-vera-ttf
Requiring coreutils seems okay although I don't know the reason for it.
However, font-bitstream-vera-ttf should be removed because it also
brings in the following:
    fontconfig
    mkfontdir
    mkfontscale
    libfontconfig1
    libfontenc1
    libfreetype26

Further, when I tried to use Version -9, it used the wrong font and
the window background was blue instead of my defined black.
Obviously, it wasn't using my /home/$USER/.Xdefaults or
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/Rxvt.
