-The makefile might have small problems with Cygwin's tools
-so it is recommended to use MinGW and its toolchain instead
-if possible.
+If you are using Cygwin or MinGW together with the MSYS environment, you
+can build the library using configure (see "Unix ports" and
+"Windows using configure" below). You can also
+build wxWindows without configure using native makefile, but only with
+MinGW. Using Cygwin together with Windows makefile is no longer supported.

+If building with Mingw without configure:

--> If your are using an old MinGW version (gcc-2.95 or older),
-   you might need to fix some headers with the patches contained
-   in the wxWin\Mingw32-gcc295.patches file. PLEASE APPLY THESE
-   PATCHES BY HAND! There are apparently a few different versions
-   of the headers floating around. Note that these patches are
-   not needed if you are using MinGW gcc-2.95.2 or newer.
-  
--> Edit wx/src/makeg95.env and set the MINGW32 variable at the top of
-   the file to either 1 (you have MinGW) or 0 (you have Cygwin).
-   Also set the MINGW32VERSION variable appropiately.
+-> Make sure you have GNU Make installed. It must be Windows native version.
+   Download it from http://www.mingw.org, the executable will be called
+   mingw32-make.exe.
+
+-> Modern version of MinGW is required; preferably MinGW 2.0 (with gcc3),
+   but MinGW with gcc-2.95.3 will suffice. If you are using 2.95, you will
+   have to change variable GCC_VERSION in config.gcc (see msw/install.txt
+   for details).

+If using configure, Unix instructions apply.
