-COLLECTING A NATIVE BUILD ENVIRONMENT
+THE COMPILER
 
 I found in the root of the distribution a file README.win32
 containing compilation instructions, which listed both mingw32 from
 mingw.org and the newer mingw64 from mingw-w64.sf.net as possible
-compilers.
-
-I downloaded and ran the automated downloader/installer
-x86-mingw32-build-1.0-sh.tar.bz2. I selected gcc and g++. I added
-the mingw32 bin subdirectory to the searchpath.
-
-Based on the same README.win32 from the Perl source, I downloaded
-dmake-4.12-2009-SHAY.zip from
-http://search.cpan.org/dist/dmake. Following the file readme.txt in
-the root of this archive, I added the file dmake.exe and the startup
-subdirectory to the bin subdirectory of mingw.

 BUILDING
