It wouldn't be too hard to take this a few steps further and completely automate the process of building that list. Then it could be a make target in the docs, generating an .xml fragment file that's XIncluded into the docs somewhere.

You'd probably have to check the fragment into CVS and periodically regenerate it on a Cygwin system, since you probably can't build it on a Linux box, since it depends on being able to run cygcheck.

The generator can date the output, too: "As of May 14, 2013..."
