  So, I replied this in Shawn's review thread.  I still don't understand
  why one of the environments that offers make isn't a requirement for
  *building* pkg(5) on Windows, but it seems that the Makefile should
  start to invoke the two setup.py files appropriately, rather than
  having two implementations of a target in each place.

  That's not this wad.
