It looks like Misc/SpecialBuilds.txt has not been updated since 2.4.

This file is referenced from C-API documentation [1], but is not accessible as a hyperlink.

Some of the recommendations in this file are out of date, in particular those that recommend setting make variables where a configure switch is available.

I believe it would be best to retire Misc/SpecialBuilds.txt and move still relevant sections to proper .rst files.
