Do the overlapping PACKAGES_DYNAMICs have any ill effects apart from
that diagnostic?  If not, I'm not entirely convinced that the extra
maintenance hassle of keeping those lists up to date for each release,
even if it's partly/mostly scripted, is justified by the marginal
benefit of silencing a NOTE.
