Completely new install of Windows 10 and msys2 and fltk from git

see screenshot for details

Your home directory ('/home/Mark J Olesen') contains spaces which could not be handled by the script.

I fixed the script and the README files, this should no longer be the case.

Note: There's no guarantee though that the build works if the FLTK tree is in a directory whose path contains one or more spaces.

Anyway: see new instructions in README.Windows.txt (git commit ef1c2d5b2686):

If you got FLTK via git then you need one extra step. Otherwise skip
over this part. Stay in your FLTK source-code directory and type the
following:

  autoconf

Now configure your FLTK installation:

  ./configure

Hint: Instead of executing `autoconf` and `configure` followed by `make`
to build FLTK (see next section) you can also run `make` directly which
will create and execute the 'configure' script with default parameters
and build FLTK with the default configuration.

(End of citation)

I hope this is helpful and simplifies the configuration task.

I also hope that I can find the time to update all build instructions which are partly outdated (as seen above) before we release 1.4.0.
