[m-rev.] diff: back out dll dependency list change

[Peter Ross]

Fergus,

If you have any suggestions about how to do this properly, I would love
to hear them.

I have two choices:
    *   prune the module list so that it only contains modules which are
        in the current directory (which I don't know how to do)
    *   modify the VPATH variable (which I am not sure is the correct
        approach)

So any advice appreciated.

Pete

    No longer write out the complete list of dlls which a foreign code
    module depends on.  This is because if any of those dlls reside in
    another directory (ie mercury.dll) then the installed mmake can't
    find it.
