The work around is only needed by older GCCs (only testet 4.4/4.7)
Ninja is very new so chances are high that there is also a new mingw.
Use slashes in link rsp file, because ar.exe can't handle \.
'ninja -t clean' only cleans built output and dep files so all file
created as a side effect and not mentioned in the 'build' statement
would be omitted.

When linking with cmake and vs_link_* the command line
could be too long for cmd.exe, which needs not to be
called in this case. (was not cached by a test)
Introduce rules which don't use the shell and use this
rule when there are no pre or post step.
For free we get a small speedup, because cmd is then
not called.
Also be more accurate when estimating the
command line length.
Older C++ compilers do not provide a standard std::stringstream.
Use our compatibility interfaces instead.
Also avoid std::stringstream(openmode) signature. Our approximate
stringstream implementation provided when the standard one is not
available does not support the openmode argument.
When MinGW is used slashes are used for dependencies
because ar.exe can't read rsp files with backslashes.
Many thx to Claus Klein for starting working on this.
Add a boolean target property NO_SONAME which may be used to disable
soname for the specified shared library or module even if the platform
supports it. This property should be useful for private shared
libraries or various plugins which live in private directories and have
not been designed to be found or loaded globally.
Replace references to <CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SONAME_${LANG}_FLAG> and
hard-coded -install_name flags with a conditional <SONAME_FLAG> which is
expanded to the value of the CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SONAME_${LANG}_FLAG
definition as long as soname supports is enabled for the target in
question. Keep expanding CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SONAME_${LANG}_FLAG in
rules in case third party projects still use it. Such projects would
not yet use NO_SONAME so the adjacent <TARGET_SONAME> will always be
expanded. Make <TARGET_INSTALLNAME_DIR> NO_SONAME aware as well. Since
-install_name is soname on OS X, this should not be a problem if this
variable is expanded only if soname is enabled.
The Ninja generator performs rule variable substitution only once
globally per rule to put its own placeholders. Final substitution is
performed by ninja at build time. Therefore we cannot conditionally
replace the soname placeholders on a per-target basis. Rather than
omitting $SONAME from rules.ninja, simply do not write its contents for
targets which have NO_SONAME. Since 3 variables are affected by
NO_SONAME ($SONAME, $SONAME_FLAG, $INSTALLNAME_DIR), set them only if
soname is enabled.
