patch 9.2.0220: MS-Windows: some defined cannot be set on Cygwin/Mingw
Problem: In Cygwin and MinGW, options like MODIFIED_BY cannot be set.
MSVC (Make_mvc.mak) allows you to build optional features
without modifying the source code by specifying DEFINES in the
nmake options. However, this is not the case in
Make_cyg_ming.mak.
Solution: Since DEFINES is used in many places, we will provide
EXTRA_DEFINES assuming that the user will define it. By adding
this to DEFINES, it will be possible to specify it in the same
way as in MSVC.
