Update: the culprits were gnome-common, gtk-doc, and xmlto.

In case it becomes useful to anybody else in the future, below are the 
scripts I used to unmask the dependencies.

Regards,
Ryan

$ join <(cygcheck -cd | sort) <(cat setup.ini | awk -f cygcheck.awk | 
python cygcheck.py texlive)
$ cat cygcheck.awk
/[@]/ {
    printf("%s", $2)
}
/requires:/ {
    for (i=2; i <= NF; i++) {
        printf(" %s", $(i))
    }
    printf("\n")
}

$ cat cygcheck.py
import collections,sys
base,closure = sys.argv[1], set()
users = collections.defaultdict(lambda:set())

for line in sys.stdin:
    names = line.split()
    name = names[0]
    for dep in names[1:]:
        users[dep].add(name)

todos = set(u for u in users.iterkeys() if u.startswith(base))
while todos:
    user = todos.pop()
    if user not in closure:
        closure.add(user)
        todos |= users[user]

print '\n'.join(sorted(closure))
