Summary: [Maven-NSIS-Plugin] Linux compatibility

Initial Comment:
NSIS is not designed to work on Linux, but there is a way to recompile the 
source code (using scons) so we can obtain a "makensis" executable which works 
like on Windows.

http://www.xdevsoftware.com/blog/post/How-to-Install-the-Nullsoft-Installer---NSIS-on-Linux-.aspx

Moreover, the Maven NSIS Plugin calls "makensis.exe /V3" so it is not 
compatible with other operating systems such as Linux. It would be useful if 
this plugin could work on every plateform.

Pending, there is a solution which consists on creating a shell script called 
makensis.exe which redirects to makensis.
