-Some BSD4.4 machines have problems when running nmh's configure script.
-They will be unable to find the location of vi and sendmail.  This is
-due to POSIX features (breakage?) in the shell sh.  The solution is to
-run the configure script under the shell `bash':
-
-    % bash configure

-Be sure to install Cygwin package libncurses-devel, in the Devel or
-Libs category.  And libncurses10 or later in the Lib category.
+If configuring with --with-tls, install these Cygwin packages:
