The reason to force a clean make (and copy config.gui to config.h) was to
allow different makefiles to 'run'. And the .bat is to make life easy for
'beginners'. And it seems to me you are not a 'beginner' anymore :-)

You can launch mingw32-make.exe from within a DOS window (add \mingw\bin and
\mingw\lib to autoexec.bat). Or rename mingw32-make.exe to make.exe so you
just have to type: make.

Smile. Yes it is mine. But I already had a hard time naming it nardy.bat.
