lynx-dev MingW32 still flying with latest version

[vtailor]

To make the makelynx.bat work, you have to remember that makelynx.bat is
a Dos batch file that generates a config.h file to get around the
limitations of Dos batch scripts.

In userdefs.h, change all

#ifndef HAVE_CONFIG_H

to

#if defined(__MINGW32__)  || !defined(HAVE_CONFIG_H)

In LYUtils.c, change


#if !defined(USE_SLANG) && (defined(UNIX) || defined(__DJGPP__)

to

#if !defined(USE_SLANG) && (defined(UNIX) || defined(__DJGPP__) || 
defined(__MINGW32__)

====================================================================

Or, leave it as an exercise to the unwary to deter them from using
MingW32.   I like leaving written records of these implicit design
decisions.
