What's the bare minimum Cygwin install to have DDD running properly on XP?

I’m using the gcc in MinGW that comes with Strawberry Perl, on Windows XP. I’d like to have ddd (the Data Display Debugger) as well but apparently on Windows the simplest way to get ddd is by running Cygwin. So what's the bare minimum of Cygwin I can install to get ddd up and running? I'd prefer if I could run ddd natively on Win32 but that doesn't seem to be an option.

As far as I can tell so far, only the following (with Cygwin DLL release version 1.5.25-15), and allowing setup to install any other packages to meet dependencies.
Base: base-files, grep
Develop: ddd, gdb
Math: gnuplot

Example to get grep working: Just drop the following files from a cygwin bin directory into an appropriate directory... cyggcc_s-1.dll cygiconv-2.dll cygintl-8.dll cygpcre-0.dll cygwin1.dll grep.exe
