As I promised some weeks ago, I would be patching the files makefile.b32
for users of Borland/CBuilder. Ref. http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2011-03/0262.html

This patch does several things:

* Rename the object object directory from 'objs' to 'BCC_obj'. I feel
  it should be named properly. Ref. Makefile.Watcom where it's called
  'WC_Win32.obj'.

* Turn off these warnings to keep the build totally silent (with CBuilder-6
  that is).
   -w-inl 8026 Functions X are not expanded inline.
   -w-pia 8060 Possibly incorrect assignment
   -w-pin 8061 Initialization is only partially bracketed

I'm sure the warnings could be fixed the "proper" way or with some added
"#pragma" statements. But that just clutters the sources IMHO.

* $(MKDIR) and $(RMDIR) have been replaced with the shell-commands 'md'
  and 'rd'. When having MingW/Msys programs 'mkdir.exe' and 'rmdir.exe' in
  $PATH, this confuses Borland's make and the result (the cleaning etc.) would
  not be as expected.

* Added a ".path.int = $(OBJDIR)" to tell make where the $(PREPROCESSED)
  files are. Why we need the preprocess step in the fist place is beyond me
  (Yang?). But I'll leave that for now.

I'll send a patch for src/Makefile.b32 in a separated email.
