This is just a minor glitch, related to the fact that Yaakov is 
gradually updating some packages that were updated long ago in Ports. 
[It's minor because emacs actually worked fine, in spite of all the 
warnings].  I'm sure he will get this all sorted out.

emacs-X11 is built using the gtk toolkit.  This is the upstream default 
for emacs, and I don't want to do something special for Cygwin unless 
there's a good reason.  So emacs-X11 requires libgtk, which requires 
libpango.
