#86: Windows bootloader is forcing .EXE extension
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------

----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
The Windows bootloader is internally replacing the built executable's file
extension to .EXE when loading resources out of it. This causes problems
with files such as .SCRs (Windows screensavers).
Attached is a patch to address this issue. Note also that the patch
includes a change in the run.rc and runw.rc resources to include the
"windows.h" header instead of "afxres.h", whose include path scons is
apparently not picking up on some Visual Studio installs.
