DOS ain't dead

On 23 August 2011 I finished my 32-bit DOS port of Eddie Kohler's Gifsicle version 1.63 using DJGPP version 2.04 beta.

Binaries, user manuals in ASCII format, and fully configured sources plus some simple instructions on how to rebuild are available at http://www.bttr-software.de/ports/.

Changes from 1.61 to 1.63:
* gifsicle: Avoid crash on frame selections where frames are repeated. Werner Lemberg report.
* gifsicle: -O3 optimization level tries even harder, so that now gifsicle -O3 should never produce larger results than gifsicle-1.60 -O2. Jernej Simoncic report.
