Cool.  Do you have patches to "Makefile.am" and "Makefile.nmake" as
well?

Yup, that's why we note, at the end of README.win32:

	If you don't have a Unix system handy, most of those tools are
	available for Win32 systems as part of the Cygwin package:

		http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/

	After installing them, you will probably have to modify the
	config.nmake file to specify where the Cygwin binaries are
	installed.

(Of course, another reason why I like having Cygwin installed at home is
that I can use the command line in the ways that I'm used to doing on a
UNIX box....)
