Here are the additional steps it took me to compile under Windows. Maybe 
this is of interest for the Wiki:

1) Install the moztools from

https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Windows_build_prerequisites_using_cygwin#moztools 


somewhere, for example, to d:\moztools

2) In a Cygwin shell, type

$ export PATH=$PATH:/cygdrive/d/moztools/bin

3) Then go on as described in the Wiki

BTW, there are now 2 directories that contain DLL's:

target/dist/bin:

libnspr4.dll  libplc4.dll  libplds4.dll

and

target/dist/lib:

libnspr4.a    libnspr4_s.a  libplc4.dll  libplds4.a    libplds4_s.a
libnspr4.dll  libplc4.a     libplc4_s.a  libplds4.dll

What is the difference? What do the other libs contain? What does the 
suffix "_s" mean? Is this described somewhere? For example, searching 
for "libplc4" on the developer center returns 0 results.
