The makefiles do not get updated very often, and it is not much effort
to sync the Windows makefiles when they do. Rewriting the build system
to work with MSys instead would take a lot of effort, which I don't
think anyone has the time for right now. I don't object if someone
wants to do it (though not until after 21.4), but I don't think it is
worth spending time on myself.
