Summary: classpath with ; on windows

Initial Comment:
When using the command-line compiler on windows,
arguments (mainly the classpath) that have a ';' do not
work unless they are enclosed in "...". Instead, they
are considered as if there was a space instead of ';'.

It happens that this behaviour is due to calling a
batch file (nicec.bat). So there is probably no way to
fix the batch file to handle this. One solution would
be to modify the command line option parsing (when
running on windows) so that successive arguments after
classpath are put together. Probably a cleaner solution
would be to stop using a batch file, and write a small
.exe to replace it (find the location of Nice, put
together the arguments and call the jvm). That small
started could be written in C.
