-Assuming that you have the src installed as /src, will build in
-the directory /obj, and want to install the tools in /install:
+As of this writing, you need to install at least the cygwin source

+You @emph{must} build cygwin in a separate directory from the source.
+So, create something like a /obj directory. You'll be performing
+your build in that directory:
@example
bash
make install > install.log 2>&1
