[Gimp-user] Revising "Hacking:Building/Windows" page

> I forgot to ask: What version of GIMP are you compiling?

I'm using this guide, so I'm guessing 2.10.2:
https://wiki.gimp.org/wiki/Hacking:Building/Windows#Building_GIMP_natively_under_Windows_using_MSYS2

Here's my output from autogen:

Francaryse@hp MINGW64 ~/gimp
# ./autogen.sh --prefix=$PREFIX --disable-python --disable-gtk-doc
--with-gimpdir=GIMP/git-master

I am testing that you have the tools required to build the
GNU Image Manipulation Program from git. This test is not foolproof,
so if anything goes wrong, see the file HACKING for more information...

Looks like Win32, you will need libtool 2.2 or newer.

checking for libtool >= 2.2 ... yes (version 2.4.6)
skipping test for gtkdocize
checking for autoconf >= 2.54 ... yes (version 2.69)
checking for automake >= 1.13.0 ... yes (version 1.13.4)
checking for intltool >= 0.40.1 ... yes (version 0.51.0)
checking for xsltproc ... yes

I am going to run ./configure with the following arguments:

--prefix=/home/Francaryse/prefix --disable-python --disable-gtk-doc
--with-gimpdir=GIMP/git-master
