Stefan modeled his package after the aspell-en dictionary package (G-B-S
based).
It seems that aspell dictionaries use the following release numbers:

aspell-<language>-a.b.c-d where d looks like a cygwin release number
but in fact belongs to the official release number

The contributor for aspell-en decided a long time ago to use the
following numbering for the cygwin documentation:

/usr/doc/aspell-en-a.b-c
/usr/doc/Cygwin/aspell-en-a.b-c

I used the same for my packages aspell-de and aspell-pl (but with /usr/share/doc/prefix)

Maybe we can switch all of the aspell dictionaries packages to a new
agreed on standard. I also vote for using the cygport approach.
