xcopy doesn't have a /y flag on nt, make breaks

           Summary: xcopy doesn't have a /y flag on nt, make breaks
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0.36
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Build
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: aryeh.katz@vasco.com


In libhttpd.mak (and libhttpd.dsp), the makefile relies on xcopy with a /y flag. 
This flag is only available on Windows 2000, not Windows NT. The xcopy fails, 
and the make then breaks (can't find os.h)
Two possible fixes.
1) xcopy without the /y
2) create a utility "apcopy" that simply calls CopyFile(x, y, FALSE) to do a
copy with overwrite (no prompting).
