wingcc and -Wb option

[Jon Griffiths]

Hi,

The -Wb argument to winegcc currently expects a comma separated list
of arguments which it then splits up and passes to winebuild.

This conflicts with the --ignore=x,y,z syntax of winebuilds ignore
argument, since it also uses a comma to delimit the list to ignore.

The easiest way to fix this is to change the delimiting character in
either option, i.e.:

winebuild: --ignore=x,y,z => --ignore=x;y;z

winegcc: -Wb,--ignore=x,y,z,<opts> => -Wb;--ignore=x,y,z;<opts>

Does anyone care which one it is?

Cheers,
Jon

';' is not convenient, as it conflicts with the shell ';' operator.
winegcc is the front-end tool, so it's more likely to be used directly.
So if anything, we should change this in winebuild. But maybe we can
introduce a '-i' options instead:

winebuild: --ignore=x,y,z => -ix -iy -iz

I just checked this, and it actually works already, as multiple -i's
are cumulative on winebuilds command line. Good thought!
