+Building under Linux using the Mingw32 cross development tools
+--------------------------------------------------------------
+
+You can build the library without leaving Linux by using the Mingw32 cross
+development toolchain. See http://www.libsdl.org/extras/win32/cross/ for
+tools and info. The GNUmakefile contains some support for this, for example:
+
+make CROSS=i386-mingw32msvc- clean GC-inlined
+
+will build pthreadGCn.dll and libpthreadGCn.a (n=version#), provided your
+cross-tools/bin directory is in your PATH (or use the cross-make.sh script
+at the URL above).
