Fix PE ports confusing -c command line switch with --compact-implib


Hi Guys,

  I am applying the patch below to fix a problem with PE targeted
  ports.  They confuse the -c command line switch (to select MRI script
  parsing) with the --compact-implib command line switch, due to a
  "feature" of the getopt package.

  The solution is to have the --compact-implib switch present twice in
  the list of the available switches, so that getopt() thinks that the
  switch cannot be abbreviated.  With this patch applied the PE ports
  pass the ld-scripts/MRI test.

Cheers
        Nick

	* emultempl/pe.em (longopts): Duplicate entry for --compact-implib
	so that it is not confused with -c.
