Wine on Windows

[Steven Edwards]

I have been doing some work on this with Mingw but it is going to be a LONG time before this is
ready. I have had good luck with getting the dlls to build on mingw and cygwin but getting
Wineserver up and going is going to be very hard if not impossible. Mingw is still your best bet
if you want to work on a native port rather then cygwin.

just get the latest mingw and msys packages and use windows 2000 or xp to build. Then just
./configure --disable-win16 CFLAGS"-DWINE_NOWINSOCK" I think. I cant remeber if -DWINE_NOWINSOCK
is right as I am not on my dev box.

Thanks
Steven
