I've build wingaim (the right way, make -f Makefile.mingw) with just 
mingw and msys and no cygwin before. Granted, I edited some stuff to not 
compile e.g. perl, so maybe that part is what needed cygwin. Otherwise 
we should update the instructions.

Although, i'd probably make it use ./configure and ditch the 
Makefile.mingw's anyway, if I was going to hack on the win32 build 
system. But that's just me.
