Subject: Compiling LDM on Windows

In case anyone on the list is interested, I've gotten LDM to compile
on Windows XP using Microsoft's Services For Unix 3.0.

Here are the tricky parts:
1)  Make sure to install gcc when you install SFU.

2)  The supplied version of 'make' won't work, so you'll have to
download and compile GNU make 3.80

3)  SFU is for the most part BSD 4.4, so I had to add the following
define to CFLAGS '-D_ALL_SOURCE'

I haven't had the time/energy/inclination to test the software, but it does
compile error free and doesn't dump core when the binaries are run.  I'm
still trying to work out how setuid root programs actually work with SFU,
as there's no such thing as 'su' in SFU.  If anyone has any
suggestions/opinions/etc.
I'd be glad to look into this further.

Anyways, here's the patch:
