Re: [PATCH] Fix msvc build output directory structure

I have some problems with the build on native Windows:
1. "nmake /f xemacs.mak" tries to write $(OUTDIR)\vcversion.c before
it makes the directory $(OUTDIR).
2. If a directory exists is checked with
"if not exist $(OUTDIR)\nul"
but the the makefile does never touch a file nul, thus the tests do
not work.
This patch fixes it for me. Ben, do my changes break anything else
that I have not thought of? I'll commit as soon as I get your
approval.
this patch looks fine to me. i didn't write the part of the makefile
that checks directories this way so i don't know why it was done; but if
it works with your new patch, then go ahead and commit.
