State: "experimental - work required".

Special build file conditions and conditionally compiled
source code sections were implemented to make ipaaca compile
under Windows. For now, the required libraries from the
prepackaged "rsx" ZIP provided by CoRLab have been hard-coded
in the Windows resolution / linking sections. The unpacked
archive is expected to reside in the common repo dir as "rsx".

Tested on Mac and Linux. Please report any issues.
Please update the rsb project first.

  of course open for discussion.
Additional bugfix: Typecasting conflict in C++
  payloads fixed. Reverted to cstdlib casts
  to avoid bulky exceptions being thrown.
