The 32-bit build is now for i686 or newer because the
prebuilt MinGW-w64 toolchains include i686 code in the
executables even if one uses -march=i486.
The build script builds 32-bit SSE2 enabled version too.
Run-time detection of SSE2 support would be nice (on any OS)
but it's not implemented in XZ Utils yet.

It is to keep all symbols in the lzma_ namespace.

This is for building liblzma. Building xz tool too requires
a little more work. Maybe it will be supported, but for most
MSVC users it's enough to be able to build liblzma.
C99 support in MSVC 2013 is almost usable which is a big
improvement over earlier versions. It's "almost" because
there's a dumb bug that breaks mixed declarations after
an "if" statements unless the "if" statement uses braces:

https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/details/808472/c99-support-of-mixed-declarations-and-statements-fails-with-certain-types-and-constructs
Hopefully it will get fixed. Then liblzma should be
compilable with MSVC 2013 without patching.

Now liblzma only uses "mythread" functions and types
which are defined in mythread.h matching the desired
threading method.
Before Windows Vista, there is no direct equivalent to
pthread condition variables. Since this package doesn't
use pthread_cond_broadcast(), pre-Vista threading can
still be kept quite simple. The pre-Vista code doesn't
use anything that wasn't already available in Windows 95,
so the binaries should run even on Windows 95 if someone
happens to care.

Spot candidates by running these commands:
git ls-files |xargs perl -0777 -n \
-e 'while (/\b(then?|[iao]n|i[fst]|but|f?or|at|and|[dt]o)\s+\1\b/gims)' \
-e '{$n=($` =~ tr/\n/\n/ + 1); ($v=$&)=~s/\n/\\n/g; print "$ARGV:$n:$v\n"}'
Thanks to Jim Meyering for the original patch.

The example programs by Daniel Mealha Cabrita were included
in the git repository, but I had forgot to add them to
Makefile.am. Thus, they didn't get included in the source
package at all by "make dist".

This is simply for licensing reasons. The 64-bit version
will be built with MinGW-w64 anyway (at least for now),
so using it also for 32-bit build allows using the same
copyright notice about the MinGW-w64/w32 runtime.
Note that using MinGW would require a copyright notice too,
because its runtime is not in the public domain either even
though MinGW's home page claims that it is public domain.
See <http://marc.info/?l=mingw-users&m=126489506214078>.

Also, put README-Windows.txt to the doc directory like
the other documentation files.

The old Makefile + config.h was deleted, because it
becomes outdated too easily and building with the
Autotools based build system works fine even on Windows.
windows/build.sh hasn't got much testing, but it should
work to build 32-bit x86 and x86-64 versions of XZ Utils
using MSYS, MinGW or MinGW-w32, and MinGW-w64.
windows/INSTALL-Windows.txt describes what packages are
needed and how to install them.
windows/README-Windows.txt is a readme file for the binary
package that build.sh hopefully builds.
There are no instructions about using Autotools for now,
so those using a git snapshot may want to run
"autoreconf -fi && ./configure && make mydist" on a UN*X
box and then copy the resulting .tar.gz to a Windows.

Thanks to Dan Shechter for the patch.
It is likely that windows/Makefile will be removed
completely, because Autotols based build nowadays
works well with both 32-bit and 64-bit MinGW (I
just need to update the docs).

to prepare for building them with Autotools.
|

to avoid problems on systems with system headers with those
names.
|
|
format character with snprintf() on POSIX systems but not
on non-POSIX systems and still keep xgettext working.

the Autotools based build system. It's not good yet, more
fixes will follow.
|
|
Released .xz spec 1.0.2 due to this fix too.
|
|
Some minor documentation cleanups were made at the same time.
|
|
pieces to avoid unneeded dependencies making statically
linked applications bigger than needed.

Now the version number is not duplicated in the
Windows-specific files anymore.

liblzma. Build both static and dynamic liblzma, and also
static and dynamic versions of the command line tools.

install.exe, so don't rely on it.
