I just had a look into the tar archive, and I see two weirdnesses
in terms of the directory entries in the archive.

- The permissions of all dirs are 700, but they should be 755, ideally.

- Dir entries in a tar archive usually have a trailing slash.  In
  w3m-0.5.3-1.tar.bz2 they don't.

Maybe that's what cygcheck is choking about.  Incidentally the
w3m-0.5.2-2.tar.bz2 archive looks "normal".
