This patchset allows building all OpenVPN components using the new Python-based buildsystem. It also allows packaging the resulting files into a functional installer package. Only two manual steps are necessary after applying these patches:
- embedding manifest files to the executables and DLLs - running MakeNSIS to generate the installer This patchset reuses existing variables in config-win32.h and version.m4 to avoid duplication of configuration data. The drawback is that the buildsystem code is slightly more complex than it could be.
