Which brings up an interesting point.  Maybe there needs to be some
differentiation (other than at the filesystem level) between the 'core'
cgywin packages, and contrib stuff.  Or at the very least, X related stuff
that depends on the X server and libs.  Otherwise, people will download
everything using setup, and wonder why stuff like ghostscript doesn't just
work out of the box.
