[ODE] ode-0.035 using mingw 2.0.0 (thanks to Yann)

[r. mutt]

if anyone is interested in fixing the 'out of the
tar.gz' make-ability of ODE w/ mingw (2.0.0 at least)
it would only require 3 minor changes

include/create a "lib" directory
//which shouldn't break anything
//but really isn't a big deal

add "-lstdc++" to LINK_OPENGL in
"config/makefile.mingw"
//which also shouldn't break anything
//but is less obvious to fix than the missing "lib"
directory for people left on their own

add this else to the if statement on line 252 of
"configurator.c"
(or some other equivalent fix):
    else if(strcmp(header[i],"alloca.h")) fprintf
(file,"\n#define alloca __builtin_alloca\n");
//i don't think this will break anything on other
systems/compilers
//it still worked in linux w/ gcc for me (i.e. it
ignored the line because i had 'alloca.h')
//and it is less messy than waiting for it to error
and then editing include/ode/config.h

or at least add mention of the above such in one of
the README or INSTALL files
the ode faq or mingw makefile
thanks again to Yann for the help and fixes
and anyone else appropriately for ODE
