Restart GtkRadiant and PNG textures are now available.
+Building with MinGW for pre Windows XP
+ IPv6 support requires a header named "wspiapi.h" to abstract away from
+ differences in earlier versions of Windows' IPv6 stack. There is no MinGW
+ equivalent of this header and the Microsoft version is obviously not
+ redistributable, so in its absence we're forced to require Windows XP.
+ However if this header is acquired separately and placed in the qcommon/
+ directory, this restriction is lifted.
