[swfmill] Unicode Support and Windows Binary

[Ralf Fuest]

Hello Prashanth,
swfmill supports xml files containing Japanese glyphs. I've tested this
some time ago using Linux and a UTF-8 xml file. Perhaps you can send me
your xml file, that doesn't work, so I can test if there is a problem in
your file or in swfmill.
I haven't tried building swfmill in windows, but it should work using
mingw and msys. After building all the dependencies you can compile
swfmill using the normal ./configure, make, make install. When you use
the svn version of swfmill you need to run autogen.sh instead of
configure.
