First, the packages need to be renamed (note the '-' between 'pine' and 
'4.44'.  Otherwise, you have version #1 of the 'pine4.44' package, not 
release #1 of version #4.44 of the 'pine' package.

pine-4.44-1.tar.bz2
pine-4.44-1-src.tar.bz2

Second, you also need to add openssl to the requires: line, because the 
binary you include DOES need that DLL.

Third, /usr/doc/Cygwin/pine4.44-1.README should be renamed (add a '-'), 
and /usr/doc/pine/ should probably be /usr/doc/pine-4.44/ ...

Fourth, you might consider installing the man pages into /usr/man/man1, 
and other doco (doc/technotes/*, etc) into /usr/doc/pine-4.44/

Fifth, /usr/doc/pine4.44-1.patch doesn't belong in the binary package, 
it should be in the -src package.  Recommend just copying it into your 
(already patched) -src like this:

pine4.44-1/CYGWIN-PATCHES/pine4.44-1.patch

and re-tarring the -src package.

And Lastly, it's setup.hint, not setup.ini -- and you don't need to 
specify curr: 4.44-1.

Other than that, sounds great! :-)
