That doesn't conform to the Cygwin standards, so I'd say no. If you wanted to split up mingw-runtime into separate DLL and header packages, they should be named something like libmingw and libmingw-devel. But seeing as how the only file that would be in libmingw is mingm10.dll (and that's just a tiny stub that hardly ever changes), this seems like real overkill. w32api should likewise theoretically be named w32api-devel but I also don't see any need to rename something gratuitously.
