installing gcc on winnt

The documentation currently says

       1. If you do not have a Unix-like shell and few Unix-like
          utilities, you will use a DOS style batch script called
          `configure.bat'.  Invoke it as `configure winnt' from an
          MSDOS console window or from the program manager dialog box.
          `configure.bat' assumes you have already installed and have
          in your path a Unix-like `sed' program which is used to
          create a working `Makefile' from `Makefile.in'.

          ...

Do you think this is still accurate? If not, could the documentation
be corrected, or the process made work as documented?

I had a report about somebody trying, and the first thing that failed
in 2.95 was that not all autoconf variables got replaced.

Thanks,
Martin
