[ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [ros-arm-bringup] 41863: stop building ntdll as a win32dll so we can fucking stop auto-importing mingw_common and kernel32 into it... it's supposed to be built as a /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS dll but since rbuild has now decided to fuck around with these DLLs, it's safer to build it as native so it can be left the fuck alone and not auto-import half the tree

Seems to me that something is broken with rbuild if "Please build me a  
windows subsystem DLL" gets translated into..

"Please build me a windows subsystem DLL and go ahead and import mingw  
while you're at it, and let's import chk_stk too, which means you'll  
probably also want kernel32".

Unless "type" is supposed to be used like TARGET_TYPE in WDK Build,  
which means "please be helpful and import extra shit behind my back"  
in which case, yes, probably "subsystem" would be useful to have.

Just my 2 cents... I'll let the ninjas do the knocking.
