Unix Pageant is in a tricky position as a hybrid CLI/GUI application. It has uses even in a purely CLI environment, but it won't build without libgtk-3-dev and friends. The solution, of course - enabled by the migration to cmake - is to allow it to build without GTK, leaving out just the GTK askpass functionality. That way you can still use it in any of its CLI modes, either as a non-graphical SSH agent or as a client for an agent elsewhere. (You can still even use it in X lifetime mode, because its connection to the X server is done using PuTTY's built-in X authentication and connection setup code. It's only putting up the password prompt window that you lose in this configuration - so you're still fine as long as you don't try to add any encrypted keys.)
