+- compiling natively on Windoze with cygwin:
+You will need to download and run the setup.exe app from cygwin's web site
+(www.cygwin.com).
+I'm personnaly running the experimental distribution (and gcc-3.2) with the
+exception of the autoconf tool for which I'm using the autoconf-devel-2.52-4
+package (I had problems with 2.53a-1). You will need to make sure you install
+at least the gcc-mingw, mingw-runtime and w32api packages.
+
+Also note that currently, even when using the -mno-cygwin option, the final
+executable requires cygwin1.dll even if none of the objects linked to form the
+executable does depend on cygwin1.dll itself. I don't know yet why the linker
+plays this trick...
