Most dependency issues are due to GDAL. Various GRASS libraries depend
upon GDAL. Exactly what GDAL depends upon varies a great deal, as GDAL
has a large number of compile-time options, many of which require
additional libraries, each of which has its own dependencies.

AFAICT, the LDAP dependency is actually due to GDAL being built with
PostgreSQL support, which depends upon libpq (the PostgreSQL client
library), which depends upon LDAP.

If you install everything using Cygwin's Setup utility, it should
install LDAP along with libpq4.
