* support for different resource compilers added (rc / windres)
* bochs must be linked with advapi.lib for registry access
* optimization flag changed to /Ox
* symbols BX_HAVE_MKSTEMP, BX_HAVE_SYS_MMAN_H and HAVE_ETHERTAP must be set to 0
* BX_HAVE_REALTIME_USEC definition fixed for MSVC
* vmware3.h: definition of COW_Header fixed for MSVC
These changes are based on the SF patch #742670. It did not work with
plugins disabled.
Here is the descriiption of patch #742670:
the library dependencies (see objdump -p file) in the
main bochs binary and the gui plugins are wrong:
- the gui plugins don't depend on their respective gui
libraries
- the main bochs binary depends on all the gui libraries
this doesn't seem much of a problem, since the needed
libraries are loaded anyway, but it's problematic when
building packages for binary distribution of bochs.
in Debian, the package building tools will set package
dependencies according to the library dependencies of
each file, so the result is:
- the main bochs package depends on all libraries. this
includes libwx, libsdl, libncurses and xlibs.
- the indivudual plugin packages don't depend on any
gui library
so when a user wants to run bochs with the curses gui
and installs the bochs-curses package, he/she will be
forced to install Xfree86, WxWindows and GTK+ on
his/her system.
the attached patch fixes the problem by moving the
linker flags related to GUI libraries to the right
makefile (gui/Makefile.in)
be used for more things than just the BIOS. Also the keymaps need to
be located relative to the share path, and maybe other things like
graphics and icons, later.
make install it will build the docbook documentation and install it
into $(prefix)/share/doc/bochs. If it is not specified, then it will
be enabled only if the program "docbook2html" is found in your path.

- now configure script does substitutions in doc/docbook/Makefile.in
- add "make install_docbook" target in main makefile that runs make install
in doc/docbook. It will not be run unless you ask for it.

- move DOC-linux.html into the docbook in a section called "Quick Start for
Linux Users", and removed all references to the DOC-linux file that I could
find. Most of the text has been moved into the Linux RPM section. Parts
that did not fit into the docbook are now in doc/docbook/misc.txt.
- put vga.pcf into INSTALL_LIST_X11 so that it's only installed when
you configure with --with-x11.
- transfer section on VGA font installation from docs-html into user guide
- remove RCS id from screen shots within user guide, since they are changed
to the revision info of user.dbk.

- if BXBIOS is not defined, set it to a default value that is produced
in the makefile. This allows us to make disk image TAR packages that
look for the bios images in the $BXBIOS directory. These packages
will be able find the current images for future Bochs versions, without
any modifications.

While it's running, you can press F12 to escape into the runtime config
menu, and then you can change disks or quit or whatever.
Better not try it with the bochs debugger...you could get stuck.

Step 1, the compile, must be done locally on a MacOSX machine. This
gives us the contents of the resource fork, which will be checked into
CVS as script_compiled.rsrc every time the script sources change. Step 2
can be done remotely on the SF compile farm: reconstruct the script
from the separate data and resource fork files.
- not all filesystems support resource forks! I added a test in the
makefile to check that the resource fork is accessible, so that at least
we will get a clear error message if the filesystem doesn't support it.
- configure script adds -DBX_PLUGIN_PATH="${plugdir}" to CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS
in the Makefile.
- in main.cc, if plugins enabled and the environment variable LTDL_LIBRARY_PATH
is not set, then it gets set to the value supplied by BX_PLUGIN_PATH.

needs to include the .o's and .a's that are part of the Bochs source code
so that it can create a list of Bochs symbols that need to be exported.
I started out using the same list as the link line, but dlltool
doesn't accept all the same options as the link such as -I and -L.
