Many packages list their dependencies on the project site.  That's one
way.  Another is to look at the packaging script for other targets.  There's
probably allot of overlap.  In this particular case, you can grab
Yaakov's port (<http://sourceware.org/cygwinports/>) and either use
it directly or peek inside his cygport script to get some help.
