I think the point is to FIRST get Sage to build reliably on Cygwin, and if
we need all these things, then so be it. We can remove them later,
precisely because we're not targeting people just randomly building Sage
on Cygwin.
If you're still at this early stage like you're suggesting, maybe updating
the prereq should be postponed until it's clearer what the real
requirements are. What's the point of putting effort in checking some
dependency if the dependency might be removed in a next release? (honest
question, no offense meant)
