Comment (by phroggie):

 Doxyfile.mingw and Doxygen's output should probably be removed during a
 clean or at least during an uninstall (although, I don't see anything
 removing doc/html/* on my Fedora 7 machine), and the added docs target
 should probably be added to .PHONY. Although, given all the other mingw
 files in the source, perhaps Doxyfile.mingw should be added to the
 repository. If so, it should probably also process the win32 bits.

 I also wonder if it would be better to add support for dot with variables
 in libpurple/win32/global.mak, as well as allow people to use a native
 Win32 Doxygen. Trouble is, I can't picture that many other people having
 dot available on Windows, and I don't think that Doxygen handles a missing
 dot with "HAVE_DOT = YES" gracefully. Conversely, I think that the small
 number of people running ''make docs'' within Cygwin should be able to
 install and wire a native dot, and as such, HAVE_DOT should probably be
 enabled by default.

 I'm glad you brought to my attention that Doxygen was available from
 Cygwin. It'll be nice to build these with less hassle from my main Win32
 workstation. Thanks!
