I don't have anything against the new distribution layout, but I have to
say that sed and fmt don't exist under Windows which I think is the main
point why you're adding the prj target above. Of course they do exist
under Cygwin, but then there would be no need to such a target as
building Lua under it is as simple as under *nix.
