Help for use the bit script under cygwin!

[Joel Sherrill]

First we now recommend doing the build using
configure and make rather than bit.  Second,
is your intent to use RTEMS 4.5 or snapshots?
Prebuilt cygwin hosted tools are available
for 4.5 and I hope to upload new Cygwin tools
for snapshots today.

[NOTE: The new tools will be built Canadian
cross on a Linux box so I am eager to hear feedback.
Doing this significantly eases the burden of
buildingcygwin binaries.]
