therefore must be built by a precompiled "snapshot" version of itself (made in
an earlier state of development). As such, source builds require that:

* You are connected to the internet, to fetch snapshots.

* You can at least execute snapshot binaries of one of the forms we offer
them in. Currently we build and test snapshots on:
* Windows (7, server 2008 r2) x86 only
* Linux 2.6.x (various distributions) x86 and x86-64
* OSX 10.6 ("Snow leopard") or 10.7 ("Lion") x86 and x86-64

You may find other platforms work, but these are our "tier 1" supported build
environments that are most likely to work. Further platforms will be added to
the list in the future via cross-compilation.

To build from source you will also need the following prerequisite packages:

* g++ 4.4 or clang++ 3.x
* python 2.6 or later
* perl 5.0 or later
* gnu make 3.81 or later
* curl
