The manifest is necessary in order for the linked binaries to be executed in a Windows 8 environment. The manifest is added using a linker script so that this feature will be compiler-neutral. The resource merging code in the linker means that if an application provides its own manifest then the default manifest will be ignored. * configure.in (all_emul_extra_binaries): New variable.
