Question:
is python3 really a requirement ?

I relied on cygport for the requirements, and it found python3 as a
requirement for seven of the collections.  I've taken a quick look at a
couple of them, and I suspect that python3 shouldn't really be required.
  But I'm not sure it's worth the trouble to go carefully through all
seven to be sure.

I suggest to review the requirements
currently on cygwin64 texlive is pulling both python and python3

I have strong doubts about both, and I do't see why texlive
should require numpy

This is coming from my last setup run

python-chardet	(2.0.1-2)
	Python character encoding detection library
	Required by: python-pygments

python-imaging	(1.1.7-5)
	Python Imaging Library
	Required by: python-pygments

python-pygments	(1.5-2)
	Python syntax highlighting module
	Required by: texlive-collection-binextra

python3	(3.2.5-3)
	Py3K language interpreter
Required by: texlive-collection-binextra, texlive-collection-mathextra, texlive-collection-pictures, python3-numpy, python3-tkinter, python3-setuptools

python3-numpy	(1.7.2-1)
	Py3K scientific computing module
	Required by: texlive-collection-pictures

python3-setuptools	(0.6.34-1)
	Py3K package management tool
	Required by: python3-numpy

python3-tkinter	(3.2.5-3)
	Py3K Tkinter GUI module
