Need someone to test my win32 .dsp generator scripts

The win32 .dsp generator is working. Here's the link if anyone wants to
check it out, I won't bother with a patch until after 0.16 is released.

A couple of notes:

* Do we want to store the .dsp, .vcproj, & .bprs in build/win32/msvc6,
build/win32/vcnet, etc. or store them in subversion/libsvn_subr,
subversion/clients/cmdline like we do now?

* Currently static builds are the default. This is because DLL building
on windows is fairly broken.

* I am copying config.cw to config.c before running the .dsp generator
as the glob won't find config.c if its not there. My recommendation to
cleanup the config.cw is to move it into a subdirectory of
libsvn_subr/win32 and rename it to config.c in that directory, then add
a win32 hook to add that dirs files only when building for win32.

* The VC.NET stuff is a mess and doesn't really work. Most of the
barriers to getting this finished are finding workarounds for VC.NET
bugs. Even with non-autogenerated projects, the linker also tends to
crash alot compiling subversion, so people should probably hold off
compiling subversion with VC.NET until MS releases a patch for the the
linker.

* Borland Builder isn't finished yet.
