Ooooops! Too late! ;-) Only kiddin' I'm sure that's not a worry. Perhaps
changing

"Run this program any time you want to install a cygwin package."

to

"It is recommended that you use setup.exe whenever you want to install a
cygwin package. If you install or update packages manually, you are doing so
at your own risk."

at the end of the third paragraph below "What's New and How Do I Get It?"...
