I assume you are refering to the abi/BUILD.TXT file which (for HEAD)
is now abi/docs/build/BUILD.{abw|txt} (the html one may be
out of date). If you don't want to get the whole tarball
nor feel like looking at it through bonsai, you can view
the individual files here
http://abiword.pchasm.org/source/cvs/abiword-cvs/abi/docs/build/
and of course my personal build document (based partially
on a pre-release of the updated build.txt) that is MSVC biased,
http://abiword.pchasm.org/source/docs/abi2build.html
which I will try to update to include building with other compilers
(MinGW and hopefully soon OpenWatcom) after I take the time
to do it. :-)

Hmm, maybe I should add a search function to ease looking
through the source on my site...
