Since cygcheck uses the listings of the installed files from the package
distribution tarball, it's not going to catch missing files/symlinks that
are supposed to be created during the postinstall phase.  In fact, since
gcc-mingw is distributed as a tarball that is extracted in a postinstall
script, it's not possible to check whether it's incomplete using cygcheck.
