[CMake] Proposal of Microsoft DLLs to Borland wrapping capabilities

[Andy Cedilnik]

Hi Luca,

What exactly is the problem with VTK and Borland? We run nightly
dashboard of VTK on borland with and without Tcl wrapping.

That said, you could run a custom command that converts libraries to omf
format if that is what you want.
