[Cmake] CMAKE for Borland C++ Builder/Win32: linker flag

[Bill Hoffman]

With Borland 5, it does not seem that   -tWM implies -tWC.
But, i have not built any non-console apps with borland, as I
only have the command line tools.   I will try adding the  -tW option
and see what happens.    If this works for Borland 5, then it should
make it into the next pathch for cmake.

Thanks for the report.

-Bill
