Up until about 2 years ago freeldr required djgpp to build which was a dos program
and the WinNT does subsystem was borked if you tried to do a build of freeldr on NT/2k.
This tool fixes the subsystem to make it more correct.

Fine by me but I expect all going to change with the new buildsystem anyway. Casper is 
wanting to implement a new dependancy tracker.

Thanks
