lib/Makefile.Watcom works fine already, for src/Makefile.Watcom we
need first to tweak src/Makefile.inc a bit - therefore the handtweaked
list still exists for now.
- make both libcurl and curl makefiles use register calling convention
(previously libcurl had stack calling convention).
- added include paths to the Watcom headers so its no longer required
to set the environment vars for this.
- added -wcd=201 to supress compiler warning about unreachable code.
- use macros for all tools, and removed dependency on GNU tools like rm.
- make ipv6 and debug builds controlable via env vars and so make them
optional instead of default.
- commented WINLDAPAPI and WINBERAPI since they broke with OW 1.8, and
it seems they're not needed (anymore?).
- added rule for hugehelp.c.cvs so that it will be created when not
already exist - this is required for building from a release tarball
since there we have no hugehelp.c.cvs, thus compilation broke.
- removed C_ARG creation from lib/Makefile.Watcom and use CFLAGS
directly as done too in src/Makefile.Watcom - this has the benefit
that we will see all active cflags and defines during compile.
- added LINK-ARG to src/Makefile.Watcom in order to better control
linker input.
- a couple of other minor makefile tweaks here and there ...
- added largefile support for Watcom builds to config-win32.h. Not yet
tested if it really works, but should since Win32 supports it.
- added loaddll stuff to speed up builds if supported.

The documented way of using them would be to use timeval.c as a source code file.
The above described method works very well when statically linking libcurl and
apps, curl tool, but has several drawbacks when you build a true shared
libcurl (i.e. Name space clash at linkage stage as functions are defined more
than once. Windows makefiles are not capable of handling this system of
source-level sharing)
So...
Now curlutil.h and curlutil.c define and implement cutil_tvnow and cutil_tvdiff
which replace curlx_tvnow and curlx_tvdiff for the curl tool. Doing this we
avoid the above described problems.
