hello developers (and especially tinderbox maintainers),<br>
<br>
on master since a week ago, builds with a native Win32 make should work<br>
and are substantially faster than the old Cygwin make, both for<br>
from-scratch builds and incremental rebuilds.<br>
<br>
you can have a faster Windows build too, by using the following file:<br>
<a href="http://people.freedesktop.org/~mst/make-85047eb-msvc.exe" target="_blank">http://people.freedesktop.org/~mst/make-85047eb-msvc.exe</a><br>
<br>
and adding a line to autogen.input:<br>
MAKE=C:/path/to/make.exe<br>
<br>
(or just copy it to /opt/lo/bin/make)<br>
<br>
note: this only works on master; release branches for 4.3 and older<br>
require Cygwin make.<br>
<br>
for details on how to build GNU make from source, and how much speed-up<br>
to expect, see:<br>
