From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> Recently the Git for Windows project started the upgrade process to a MSYS2 runtime version based on Cygwin v3.x. This has the very notable consequence that `$(uname -r)` no longer reports a version starting with "2", but a version with "3". That breaks our build, as df5218b4c30b (config.mak.uname: support MSys2, 2016-01-13) simply did not expect the version reported by `uname -r` to depend on the underlying Cygwin version: it expected the reported version to match the "2" in "MSYS2". So let's invert that test case to test for *anything else* than a version starting with "1" (for MSys). That should safeguard us for the future, even if Cygwin ends up releasing versionsl like 314.272.65536.
