A messy way:
steve@gashuffer:~$ apt-rdepends gnome | cut -f2 -d\: | awk '{print $1}'| \
sort | perl -ne 'my %packages;while (<>){if ($_ eq \
$last){$packages{$last} += 1;}else{$last=$_;$packages{$last}=1;}}foreach \
(sort keys %packages){if ($packages{$_} > 50){print "$packages{$_} = \
$_";}}'
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
61 = libart-2.0-2
82 = libatk1.0-0
56 = libbonobo2-0
294 = libc6
57 = libgconf2-4
111 = libglib2.0-0
54 = libgnomecanvas2-0
52 = libgnomevfs2-0
52 = libgnomevfs2-common
82 = libgtk2.0-0
62 = liborbit2
85 = libpango1.0-0
69 = libpopt0
77 = libxml2
91 = xlibs
128 = zlib1g

liborbit2 libpango1.0-0 libatk1.0-0 all look like likely candidates.
I'm guessing you don't want libc6 :)
