Actually, the generic-build-script template recommends this.  Are you
proposing changing the template?  Meanwhile, I've been sitting on this
patch to the templates:

2005-10-13  Eric Blake  <ebb9@byu.net>

	* templates/generic-readme: Add License, Language.  List date
	when releases are made.
	* templates/generic-build-script: Fix typo when failing.

Maybe the patch should be tweaked to recommend "cygcheck -l $PKG" instead
of the current recommendation of an explicit list that is likely to get
out of date.
