 The shims are a thin wrapper over the rclone RPC.
 
 The implementation is based on cgo; to build it you need Go and a GCC compatible
-C compiler (GCC or Clang). On Windows you can use the MinGW port of GCC,
-e.g. by installing it in a [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org) distribution
-(make sure you install GCC in the classic mingw64 subsystem, the ucrt64 version
-is not compatible with cgo).
