Those are supposed to be braces, not parentheses. I.e., use "${sbindir}" instead of "$(sbindir)". I would also recommend using a font that makes better distinction between "(" and "{".
Also TCP Wrappers and I don't recall if there was anything else (it is past my bedtime). It is not worth a lot of work, but it might not be a bad way to "document" the dependences.

Is this sentence from the end of /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/openssh.README:
You must have installed the zlib, the openssl-devel and the minires-devel packages to be able to build OpenSSH!
No, not the tools.
not enough? Or do you mean stuff like "gcc", "ash", "make", etc?
