A very common mistake new Windows developers make when trying to build WebKit is that they forget to set the WebKitOutputDir shell variable. When this happens, they get tons of errors when JavaScriptCoreGenerated and WebCoreGenerated attempt to build. This patch mentions the importance of setting this variable, and links to an MSDN entry on how to do so.
