There's no problem here.  /var/lib/texmf/postinstall is used for the new 
streamlined TeX Live postinstall process.  The files in it are markers 
indicating that something needs to be done, and they are renamed with 
".done" appended when it's done.  The same thing is done with normal 
postinstall files in /etc/postinstall, but I guess cygcheck knows about 
them.

I don't know if there's something I should do to avoid this problem or 
if cygcheck just needs to be tweaked.
