This Makefile compiles a MinGW cross compiler and cross compiles many free libraries such as GD and SDL. Thus, it provides a nice MinGW cross compiling environment. All necessary source packages are downloaded automatically.
The Makefile is designed to run on any Unix system.

This release fixes a download error caused by the MinGW project. They suddenly changed the names of their source tarballs. That sort of thing should never happen!
This release also contains some bugfixes which allow it to run on a wider range of systems.
All downloaded files are now verified by their SHA-1 checksums.
New versions of various packages are supported.

This release provides many new libraries such as wxWidgets, GTK+ and OpenEXR.
In addition, new versions of various packages are supported.
This release fixes some serious build problems on FreeBSD and MacOS-X.
The Makefile has a new target "clean-pkg" and allows to be called from a separate build directory via "make -f .../Makefile".
Some new versions of the packages are supported, especially GCC-4.3 by switching from MinGW GCC to TDM-GCC.
This release fixes some minor build problems.
It also supports some new packages and some newer versions of the already supported packages.
Parallelization is now disabled by default.
This release fixes a download error caused by the GDAL project. They suddenly changed their download URLs. That sort of thing should never happen!
In addition, some newer versions of various packages are supported.
There is also a small compatibility fix for OS X.
The shell script has been rewritten as Makefile and supports partial builds and parallel builds.
As usual, this release also supports some new packages and some newer versions of the already supported packages.
This release now includes a tutorial by Hans Bezemer and has improved compile options of FLTK. As usual, it supports some newer versions of the libraries.
At the request of its author, libowfat is no longer supported from this release on.
The script now uses a specific SourceForge mirror instead of randomly chosen ones, because the download phase often stumbled on some very slow mirrors.
A sudden change in the download URLs of GEOS made the automatic download fail. Such changes should never happen! But it happened, and this quick release is an attempt to limit the damage.
This release also supports some newer versions of the libraries including support for fontconfig-2.5.0.
This release is a switch from gcc-3 to gcc-4. It also supports a new library and some newer versions of the already supported libraries.
This release is the result of the public attention the release 1.0 got. It contains many improvements suggested by its first users, and adds support for many new libraries.
Thanks to Rocco Rutte who contributed many code snippets.
This first release has been created in a 7-day-sprint.
