Thanks Marco,

Installed test packages and ran scripts using gpg/v/2, then ran against signed 
Cygwin package download cache archives and signed cygport package upstream cache 
archives - logs attached - ran on each detached sig:

	gpg2 --verify det.sig
	gpg2 --verify --batch det.sig det
	gpgv2 det.sig det	# batch built in and datafile always required
				# despite what gpgv/gpgv2 docs say

some data files did not exist or not in required format e.g. .tar instead of 
.t?z or .tar.?z!

All look good to me.
