Compiled and working, although not without issues.

The build environment itself is a bit strange, so compiling Adonthell that
way is not really straightforward. Not sure if I'll manage to document the
process properly.

For now I have just build it the Unix way, so not yet able to through
together a (preliminary) package. In fact, getting all the required
dependencies into a standalone distribution might be even more tricky than
on OSX. I can possibly come up with a script to collect the required dlls,
but also need to package Python.

If it really runs without issues remains to be seen. I only got halfway
through the intro, before the VM froze completely. I assume the 3D
acceleration support is not really great. At least it actually used the D3D
renderer :-).

Most severe right now, however, are crashes when switching the display
mode. These are in SDL itself, so I'll compile that with debug information
next and see if it is something Adonthell does wrong, or some issue of SDL
itself.

Will report back when I know more or have a package ready for testing on
real hardware.

Kai
