Allow the special level and dungeon compilers to handle input
files which have CR+LF delimited lines. Apparently Cygwin doesn't
convert MSDOS style line ends into newlines the way stdio should
do for text I/O. The resulting unexpected CR characters result in
syntax errors.
And explicitly using '\n' on both the lex and yacc sides of
MAP processing allows removal of the old NEWLINE hack for Mac MPW.
It won't matter what numeric value that character escape sequence
has internally.
This was a tricky one. While the error was ultimately because
he was specifying a non-existant directory in defaults.nh, the
error message lead me to the wrong area until I traced through
with a debugger.
It turns out that an fqn buffer was being re-used before it
was finished being used with the original information in
sys/share/pcunix.c, so the error message listed the
wrong file!
This adds one more buffer and fixes the problem.
Note that it could only affect plaforms with
PREFIXES_IN_USE defined (NOCWD_ASSUMPTIONS
or VAR_PLAYGROUND)
It also alters the WIN32 error message to give them a
hint as to what the problem might be.

Add absent prototypes to some core routines.
Also add some port function() to function(void) in some win32 routines.
Also updates the Borland C Makefile for win32.
From a bug report. I can't test this fix, but
inspection of the code shows that his suggested fix is clearly
necessary. Once `bp' gets incremented, storing via `bp[BUFSZ-1]'
writes beyond the bounds of `buf' and clobbers something.
