xemacs winclient improvements


Several xemacs ideas:

* I added -mwindows to the winclient linker step which results in a
much improved winclient.
I'll take this patch to xemacs-patches by myself.

* parseCommandLine() does not work on cygwin this way.
It uses the Win32 API to find files, and should be special cased to
use the POSIX API.
I'll discuss this at xemacs-beta

* xemacs-21.5.28-3 uses slow defaults:

  Compiling in support for extra debugging code.
  Compiling in support for runtime error checking.
  WARNING: ---------------------------------------------------------
  WARNING: XEmacs will run noticeably more slowly as a result.
  WARNING: Error checking is on by default for XEmacs beta releases.
  WARNING: ---------------------------------------------------------

hmm. 21.5.28 is stable for me and upstream. maybe remove this.

* build failure on 1.7:
In file included from
/usr/src/xemacs-21.5.28-3/src/xemacs-21.5.28/src/console-msw.h:41,
                 from
/usr/src/xemacs-21.5.28-3/src/xemacs-21.5.28/src/cmdloop.c:43:
/usr/src/xemacs-21.5.28-3/src/xemacs-21.5.28/src/syswindows.h:500:
error: conflicting types for 'wcstok'
/usr/include/wchar.h:92: error: previous declaration of 'wcstok' was here
make[1]: *** [cmdloop.o] Error 1

This needs a patch upstream. Maybe I'll take it upstream.
