OK, I need to cleanup the whole build tree..

Because I thought that this is the OFFICIALL way of doing Windows
builds, since this script is under admin/nt/dist-build!  But don't
worry, I want to learn a robust and simple way of distributing
Emacs. :-)

I see myself as a backup of Corwin: First I'd like to build a zip file
with Emacs and its necessary dependencies.

Later configured --with-native-compilation.

And later building an installer out of it.

Yes please.  A step by step approach to building Emacs is probably more
successful in the end.
