 Dependencies: GCC 4.7.3 or later, CMake 2.8.6 or later, libunbound 1.4.16 or later (note: Unbound is not a dependency, libunbound is), libevent 2.0 or later, libgtest 1.5 or later, and Boost 1.53 or later (except 1.54, [more details here](http://goo.gl/RrCFmA)).

 * Statically linked release build: run `make release-static`.
 * Debug build: run `make debug`.
 * Test suite: run `make release-test` to run tests in addition to building. Running `make debug-test` will do the same to the debug version.
-* Building with Clang: it may be possible to use Clang instead of GCC, but this may not work everywhere. To build, run `export CC=clang CXX=clang++` before running `make`.

+**Makefile Targets for Static Builds:**
+
+For static builds there are a number of Makefile targets to make the build process easier.
+
+* ```make release-static-win64``` builds statically for 64-bit Windows systems
+* ```make release-static-win32``` builds statically for 32-bit Windows systems
+* ```make release-static-64``` the default, builds statically for 64-bit non-Windows systems
+* ```make release-static-32``` builds statically for 32-bit non-Windows systems
+* ```make release-static-arm6``` builds statically for ARMv6 devices, such as the Raspberry Pi
