Hi, Johnny

The second one is not fix just a note. Because after I finished compiling on
mingw32 I just happened to see that the ace.dll depends on that specified
dll provided by mingw. If you want to put it somewhere I think the compiling
Readme for mingw (if have) is the best place. 

Regards,
Andy
