Updates some documentation, sparked from issue #3230.

I cannot test the build instructions myself, but assume they will work (what is there now doesn't work regardless).

The command

find . -path '*/.git*' -prune -o -type f -exec grep makefile\\. {} \; -print

shows only 2 more files that reference the old makefile.* files:

        cd src; $(MAKE) -f makefile.unix bitcoind
        cd src; $(MAKE) -f makefile.unix clean
        cd src; $(MAKE) -f makefile.unix test_bitcoin
./contrib/debian/rules
      src/makefile.osx (Expat).
./contrib/debian/changelog

Update build docs that refer to old makefile.* files.
Also update pull-tester's error message.

Automatic sanity-testing: PASSED, see http://jenkins.bluematt.me/pull-tester/2b9170746945e5bfc09e2a235c70fee359a224a5 for binaries and test log. This test script verifies pulls every time they are updated. It, however, dies sometimes and fails to test properly. If you are waiting on a test, please check timestamps to verify that the test.log is moving at http://jenkins.bluematt.me/pull-tester/current/ Contact BlueMatt on freenode if something looks broken.

ACK

Edit: not sure either whether the instructions for (for example) Windows are correct (can you comment @diapolo?) but it's more useful than what there is now.

Diapolo commented at 10:42 AM on November 11, 2013:

There IS no sh in a DOS prompt. A MinGW shell has this, but not a DOS prompt. Edit: I think this is what we call MSYS shell in the same document.

laanwj commented at 11:05 AM on November 11, 2013:

bash then?

Diapolo commented at 12:42 PM on November 11, 2013:

No, I would just replace DOS prompt: with MSYS shell: here.
