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..."
