Log Message:
-----------
Replace references to the "make" command by ${BUILD_COMMAND} (now
implemented by the setup files for each appropriate CMake generator
for maximum generality.

Other changes (such as the reference to the now working "MinGW Makefiles"
generator) to bring this documention up to date.

 For the MinGW/MSYS/Wine case, I (AWI) essentially followed the same
 instructions as above for the Linux case.  However, some of the
 buildtools (e.g., Tcl/Tk/Itcl/Itk/Iwidgets variants) don't yet build
