If we want to include (some subset of) cygutils explicitly in Base,
I could see splitting into three subpackages:

What about "cygstart mkshortcut readshortcut"?  These may be used by
postinstall scripts, the other stuff is extra, afaics.

Agreed.

Ack.

IMO man1 pages should be packaged together with their executables.

Ack.

So, as result, we should do this for a start:

- cygwin-doc drops "Base" from the categories.
- dos2unix adds "Base" to the categories.
- cygutils drops "dos2unix" from requires.

Yes.

The man3 and info pages definitely don't need to be in Base, but it
would be nice if the man1 pages were packaged with cygwin.  Is that
possible?  Otherwise, this sounds good to me.

Sure, I can do that. I'll roll a new release tonight (for both 32- and 64-).
