I don't think there's any good reason to have wildly different OUTPATH names
for each specific platform variant.

The various names also lead to unnecessary work when packaging, just to
correctly handle LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

The attached patch reduces OUTPATH to two possible values: unx and wnt. Since
it is potentially intrusive, I prefer to show it here for review instead of
committing it directly.

As Norbert already wrote, the best course of action is probably to get

to a state where building with a read-only source tree works (i.e.,

where all the build artefacts are generated to some distinct place).

Then, differentiating on platform and .pro/non-pro can go away

completely (why stop at "unx" vs. "win," anyway?), and only some

differentiation based on "build" and "host" is needed for cross compilation.
