The command line build for --cpu-k8 now works properly.

The command line build for --cpu-k10 still fails for a different
reason. Looking in lib_mpri_k10.vcproj, it appears that
VCPreBuildEventTool tries to copy gmp-mparam.h from
..\..\mpn\x86_64w\k10\ but that file is actually located in
..\..\mpn\x86_64w\k8\k10\. I change the project file to reflect the
correct location and compilation was successful. "make check" failed
for popcount and hamdist but since I actually have a core2 CPU and
popcount and hamdist both have K10 specific assembly, I'm not
surprised the tests failed. I don't have easy access to a K8 or K10 so
I can't test on the correct processor.
