inspection: Better checking for Windows root disks (RHBZ#729075).

Previously any disk that had /autoexec.bat or /boot.ini or /ntldr
would be picked up as a candidate for a Windows root disk.  If further
checking could not find any systemroot (eg. /windows) then this would
result in complete failure of inspection.

In particular, this got confused by Hp_recovery partitions which have
/autoexec.bat, but don't have a systemroot in one of the usual places
(they have /MiniNT instead).

What we do now is to properly investigate all possible systemroot
places before deciding this is a Windows systemroot, so the subsequent
failure cannot occur.

Richard W.M. Jones [Fri, 22 Jul 2011 10:12:52 +0000 (11:12 +0100)]
perl: Fix CCFLAGS for Perl 5.14.

A change to ExtUtils::CBuilder in Perl 5.14 causes CCFLAGS to
completely replace, rather than appending, the C flags.

The unfortunate consequence of this is that vital flags such as
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 are missing.  For 32 bit code, this means you
get binary-incompatible code that completely fails to load.

For further analysis see:

http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/2011/04/msg171535.html

This commit changes CCFLAGS so that it appends to the existing
$Config{ccflags} instead of replacing it.  On earlier versions of Perl
this means we get two copies of the flags, which is unfortunate but
should be safe.
