What about 'plugins' to checkpkg.  These would still be scripts (any
language) but would be run by checkpkg.  They could be triggered by
an environment variable or some other mechanism that points checkpkg
at a directory to use.

The checkpkg run could then call each script in the directory and bail
if $? != 0.

Thanks
