As requested by Corinna on the Cygwin list, here's a patch to document
some recent changes in the build environment.

A second patch adds two new targets for the makefile to strip and
compress setup.exe.

I#ll also offer a third patch that adds an option to setup.exe to enable
the use of (local) ini files with a different basename than "setup".
This is useful to offer (in the same install hierarchy) multiple
installations, either for having different configurations or to allow
individual installations to be rolled back.  The idea is to copy the
setup.ini to something like release_2013-01-18.ini whenever a release is
made and let setup.ini keep going forward for testing without having to
duplicate the complete install hierarchy.

This is certainly not the most elegant way to do this, but I was more
concerned to not change most code.


Regards,
Achim.
