Fixing Imake

Chris,

Huh... oddly enough, -L/lib/automode.o compiled and worked on textmode
mounts, whereas leaving off the lib completely would cause imake to choke at
the first end of line it reached in a makefile.

Compilation of imake failed when I set BootstrapCFlags to /lib/automode.o,
as BootstrapCFlags does not get included on the end of the compilation line
for imake.exe; rather, BootstrapCFlags gets included between other flags,
etc.

Changing BootstrapCFlags to -l/lib/automode.o worked fine, just
like -L/lib/automode.o, so would that be considered correct?
