This happens even when not installing Xorg.  Why is this?

Due to cygwin-utils requesting desktop-file-utils, which in turn requires
libglib2.0_0, which requires dbus and that finally ends up pulling in
libX11_6.

IMHO
the first step should be verified, Base packages should only
require other Base ones.

Agreed. desktop-file-utils should be an optional item for cygutils, and cygutils' behavior should gracefully degrade if the package is missing. I'll look into it.
