- Explicitly mention autoconf >= 2.59 as requirement (as per
  configure.in). Also automake >= 1.9 (though I'm not sure which
  if that's really the minimum requirement).

 - Document various missing configure options.

 - Fix various typos and inconsistencies.

libftdi is supported under Windows. Do not use versions earlier than 0.14.

In general, the D2XX driver provides superior performance (several times as fast),
but has the draw-back of being binary-only - though that isn't that bad, as it isn't
a kernel module, only a user space library.

To build OpenOCD (on both Linux and Cygwin), use the following commands:

@example
./bootstrap
@end example

Bootstrap generates the configure script, and prepares building on your system.

@example
./configure [options, see below]
@end example

Configure generates the Makefiles used to build OpenOCD.

@example
make
make install
@end example

Make builds OpenOCD, and places the final executable in ./src/, the last step, ``make install'' is optional.
