[Bug-XBoard] On building xboard/winboard on Windows

I see a security issue in winboard, and thought to try to fix it.

The only directions I see for building it are those included in the tarball which, with some inconvenience, I've unpacked.

I don't have CYGWIN, but do have the MS tools (no-charge version). According to the README file in the package,
====
You can build WinBoard using Microsoft Visual C with the following
commands, or by opening the project in Visual Studio and clicking the
build button.

        cd winboard
        nmake -f makefile.ms

===
Wheter I can use the MS compile or not, the makefile does not exist. Where do I find the proper instructions?

I have the xboard 4.4.1 tarball.
