I don't think that this _needs_ to be part of the release process.
If we monitored the ARI results daily (I think that Pierre is doing
that for us right now, but it looks like doschk checks are not included
in the email), we shouldn't have this sort of issue. In the meantime,
we can just make sure we check the ARI on the web just before we cut
the branch, and maybe just before we create the release tarball.

If someone extracts out the script that does "dos checking" in
the ARI script, and returns a textual list of files that cause
problem, I don't mind adding it to the release procedure.
