[osg-submissions] Using command-line build system nmake to build OpenSceneGraph does not work

[Luigi Calori]

I think that the proposed patch try to mimic the devenv behaviour under 
nmake.
Being the one who proposed the ../bin and ../..bin hack I knew I was 
relying on a peculiarity of the generator that differentiate target 
placement
for config, I never used nmake so did not know that generator did not 
use config folders.
I think that if one use devenv in batch should not be affected by this 
patch.
