Depends on what you mean with light-weight.  
For GUI applications etcetera I do not thinkt it is worthwhile
living without gdomap and gpbs.  However, it is possible to 
make a distribution that will ship:

* only the relevant dll's
* gdomap, gpbs
* a few supporting files (mainly charset data and timezone data)

Martin Brecher already gave you an estimation of the sizes 
(the rest will not add significantly)

A bigger problem is the fact that `back' is not
quite there yet on windows.  

But on the bright side, there are no problems
with base working on windows.
