Since cygcheck already has capability for reading package file lists
(/etc/setup/*.lst.gz) do you think it would be sensible to move the
'rebaseall' logic into cygcheck, so that we don't need a shell?  But I
suppose that doesn't get around the issue of not being able to run it
from a bash CMD prompt as you can currently.  Though I guess it could be
installed as a shortcut on the startup menu or something.
