I don't know.  I don't care either, and I never did (f.i. I don't know 
of the impact of the configure changes).  Do we care about Windows?  Can 
Windows use the make infrastructure at all?  Or does it need the CW 
project stuff?

I'll hold on this until someone can either report that Windows compiling 
is broken anyway, or can confirm the change is safe.
