I have created a working branch of dime that I intend to reintegrate at some later time.

The autoconf now works with the standard gnu tools, at the expense of the msvc hacks that I have removed. It will not do any special msvc stuff anymore that broke automake.

Now I am turning the dxf2vrml into a dxf2osm and you are all welcome to help.
