Could you please add this extra note to the wiki. (It's important everyone keep the build directions up to date and as complete as possible, since incorrect build directions can be a show stopper for new devs.)
Can I second that. As a new windows dev I found the old wiki notes for compiling on Win32 helpful, but still quite lacking in some areas, so I updated it as I experimented and found new things (still some stuff about applying patches to be added!). I actually think new devs can be in a good position to improve the wiki pages, because they don't assume too much knowlege.
We need to make the barriers to entry as low as possible for all newcomers, particularly since there are only about 50 people who are really in the thick of it with Inkscape.
