I forgot that: I think it is fine having separate modules for optional 
subsystems and requiring having the core system too to build them. The 
problem I spot in the main module is mixing core os and win32 pieces. As 
I said, there are two ways: a) forget NT and say ROS is a Win32 
reimplementation (you don't need separating native and Win32 CSR/GUI 
modules); b) remember ntos is the system and that it can run *without* 
Win32, therefore make apparent there are two distinct pieces of software 
in the 'reactos' module.
