There is no way that the default cygwin tk will be an X-dependent one; none of Red Hat's commercial customers want to fire up an Xserver just to run the GNUpro debugger (that is, gdb/insight).  And as a non-commercial free-as-in-beer user of cygwin, I *agree* with that.  Those commercial customers provide the money that keeps Corinna and cgf employed, supporting cygwin (even tho it's not part of cgf's job description), and cranking out the new goodies for us.

I do *not* want to restart that thread again here -- but check the ml list archives for more info; I think the most recent discussion was back in early September/late August 2002.
