OK, I'm going the easy way and just change the default CheckVersionUpdate=0. As the current notification (in the Options dialog title) is asynchronous (in order not to ever delay mintty by this) and asynchronous modification of a MessageBox (as used for the About info) is not possible in Windows, moving it there would have become very tricky anyway.
