Updated Note getting started developing Rust (markdown)
Reordered steps for Windows to adjust for requirements of Git and Python installed first.
For Windows steps: New Git Installer for Windows has changed. Updated steps to reflect Git Installer changes. No longer need MinGW Developer Toolkit installed during MinGW setup.
Added sub-steps for handling older gcc dll's and copying them
Updated tutorial URL.
removed unneeded extra lines getting cutoff
No longer need Curl. Replaced with wget for easier Windows building.
added note about backslash being needed for MinGW postinstall script
Missing Perl package, so changed to mingw-developer-toolkit as component to install.
Forgot to add mingw32-base to checkmark for installation (which is needed for GNU C Compiler and others)
Updated steps to download latest Curl 7.32.0
Revised steps to support new MinGW Installation GUI.
Added new steps to install libpthreadgc and libpthread-old (to fix Windows users build errors occurring and automatically handle libpthread-2.dll and libpthreadGC2 installations correctly )
added OPTIONAL note about working with and trying different toolchains on Windows for building Rust.
one workaround for 'libpthreadGC2.dll not found' problem on Win32/MINGW
Add note about RUST_FLAGS
Show how to automatically install libpthread in the troubleshooting section
note that raising the open file limit globally is not the only reasonable option available on OS X.
Removing the direct suggestion that one ever run `sudo make check` (its one thing to mention "run as root" solution offhand; its quite another to encode it as officially recommended.)
Add workaround for "too many open files"
msys uses /etc/profile ... so added additional note about the MinGW path to it.
