 rem [1] doesn't cope with makefiles with DOS line endings, so must mount

 rem     emacs source with text!=binary.

 rem [2] fails when needs to invoke shell commands; okay invoking gcc etc.

-rem [3] requires LC_MESSAGES support to build; maybe 2.95.x update to

-rem     cygwin provides this?

+rem [3] requires LC_MESSAGES support to build; cannot build with early

+rem     versions of cygwin.

+rem [4] may fail on Windows 9X and Windows ME; if so, install Bash.

+rem [5] fails when building leim due to the use of cygwin style paths.

+rem     May work if building emacs without leim.

+rem [6] not recommended; please report if you try this combination.

+rem [7] tested only on Windows XP.
