  DevTools/core_devl: Checkin by Svn Import
  Major changes:
  * GBE_BUILDFILTER configuration has been simplified
  
  JATS will automatically filter out target platforms that cannot be built
  on the users machine. ie: It will not try to build Solaris targets on a
  Windows machine. Thus, under the new scheme a Windows GBE_BUILDFILTER need
  not contains '!SOLARIS'
  
  This greatly simplifies the creation of GBE_BUILDFILTER as it does not
  need to be configured to exclude targets that cannot by built.
  
  Existing GBE_BUILDFILTER definitions are backward compatible.
  
  * Jats utility : gen_cots
  Requires the user to specify a target VOB with the -vob option
  Ensures the user is aware of the target VOB
  
  Now creates temporary directory within the users TEMP directory.
  Addresses problems where the user's CWD is within the package being
  processed.
  
  Removed the '-delete' option
  Always delete the temp work directory if it exists.
  
  Minor changes:
  * Sandbox command
  Added build, make, clean, clobber commands
  
  Sandbox packages may contain a file called 'stop', to exclude the
  target from consideration in the build set.
  
  * MCR Toolset
  This toolset only supports 16 compiler search paths. An descriptive error
  has been added to detect and report on this error.
  
  * WIN32 and PHARLAP toolsets
  The --Resource=xxx option specifies a comma separated list of files.
  Spaces are now allowed either side of the comma.
  ie: "--Resource=file1.h, File2.h"
  
  * Jats run_test command
  Removed a non-fatal warning message that was being generated when the
  tests we run on a Window machine.
  
  * descpkg file
  Now contains HOSTNAME of the build machine
  Not (yet) aggregated when packages are merged
  
  * built.<machine> tag files created by create_dpkg
  Now contains build trace information
  Date-Time, Machine, User, ABT config
  
  * jats abt command simplified usage
  This command now appends the current directory as a library path to ANT if
  it contains 'jar' files.
  
  Uses ANT 1.6 as the default version of ANT
  
  Both changes will simplify the use of this command within the escrow
  environment. ie: 'jats abt -buildfile=build1.xml'
  
  * BuildVersion directive
  Form:
  BuildVersion ('--Style=C');
  now works as expected.
  Slightly better error detection on the directives arguments.
