Fixing things

The project is moving along. I began working on the branch Lee left. I fllowed his steps and I ended at the same spot. That is a linking problem. After thinking about it (not too much really), I decided to create a test branch only changing the C compiler. The result is that the project compiles and runs testcase swt001. The rest of the testcases freeze the system when the window comes up. Sounds like it enters a blocking loop. Actually the system doesn't stop, and sometimes I can recover and kill the process.

In another front, I prepared an Eclipse distribution with all that is needed to boot the port. So far the splash window comes on but the process stops with an error of a missing class.

I also encountered some errors that I need to fix in the main trunk. First, for some reason, the color dialog stoped working and second the list box widget has serious refresh problems, it doesn't repaint right.

And finally, I went over the stuff that needs to be done to be included in the Eclipse organization and I would need so much time that for now it is not worth it.

So you see, lots of things and so far nobody to help... pity
