Now time for next level of confusion - your patch touches bootstrap.sh but I don't really know how to execute it. Running it directly as "bootstrap.sh" obviously does not work, and I don't see any "sh" binary for "sh bootstrap.sh" to work. I notice that bootstrap.bat does not work either, even though I though it should pick mingw from PATH.
So - what ways of using mingw do we want to have supported?
I have a very basic question: what is the difference between bootstrap.bat and bootstrap.sh in terms of what they do? Obviously one is designed to be run in cmd.exe and the other in a Unix shell (which on Windows can be provided by Cygwin or MSYS or something else), but does it matter which one I use? Thanks, Nate
