Extend the previous patch allowing make -f Makefile.nt flexdll
install-flexdll not to require the install-flexdll stage.
OCAML_FLEXLINK is utilised as required to allow compilation of the entire
system using an in-tree compiled flexlink. The build process simply
required the flexdll target to appear before world.
opt.opt compiles a native code version of flexlink.exe as flexlink.opt.
install always installs flexlink.exe if it was compiled along with any
required .manifest files. It also installs the appropriate .o/.obj files
to $(INSTALL_LIBDIR).
At present, the bootstrapping is not extended to the Cygwin ports.
(Patch by Adrien Nader!)
This is a partial revert of revision 14168 which caused issues when
bootstrapping the compiler. Since these directories don't take long to
build, we can always use a byte-compiled compiler.
Bootstrapping and more generally working on the compiler itself does not
play nice with trying to use the most recent compiler as soon as
possible: imagine you've just modified the compiler but in a way that
breaks it at runtime in a non-obvious way; all the files that are
subsequently built will have been built with your the compiler you will
be debugging.
v2: always build tools/ with boot/ocamlc since most executables link
against compiler libs.

This script was built from ocamlcomp.sh.in through sed and is called
instead of "ocamlc" (for instance).
It makes it possible to switch from "ocamlc" to "ocamlc.opt" without
changing anything in the Makefiles, only calling sed.
I couldn't cleanly make it handle both a compiler for the target and for
the build. Instead I'm replacing it and doing as much as possible
directly in the Makefiles.
I hoped it would reduce the number of shell invocations, which would
speed things up quite a lot on Windows but I still had to have at least
one since it's not possible to update a make variable from inside a make
rule: i.e. it's not possible to do X=a, build a.opt and update X to be
a.opt.
