 >  * Figure out whether mpfr-4 needs to be installed or not.  I now have
 two different brand-new installs of Cygwin that failed with the current
 package list until I installed it.  It was ''not'' pulled in with gcc-core
 and friends.

 Just to make sure that I understand you correctly: you say that
 1. A "brand-new install of Cygwin" does not come with a C compiler.
 2. If one tries to install GCC by installing gcc-core, it does not
 automatically install the mpfr dependency.
