While testing the new command-line handling, I tried actually using
that option for the first time in a long time, and saw

because Windows MessageBox() had done its own wrapping on the text, at
a slightly narrower width than the one implied by the hard newlines in
the input string. Removed the mid-paragraph newlines, so that
Windows's wrapping will be the only wrapping.
message_box() previously differed from the real MessageBox API
function in that it permitted the user to provide a help context to be
used for a Help button in the dialog box.
Now it adds a second unusual ability: you can specify that the text
and caption strings are in UTF-8 rather than the system code page.
Now that the new CMake build system is encouraging us to lay out the
code like a set of libraries, it seems like a good idea to make them
look more _like_ libraries, by putting things into separate modules as
far as possible.
This fixes several previous annoyances in which you had to link
against some object in order to get a function you needed, but that
object also contained other functions you didn't need which included
link-time symbol references you didn't want to have to deal with. The
usual offender was subsidiary supporting programs including misc.c for
some innocuous function and then finding they had to deal with the
requirements of buildinfo().
This big reorganisation introduces three new subdirectories called
'utils', one at the top level and one in each platform subdir. In each
case, the directory contains basically the same files that were
previously placed in the 'utils' build-time library, except that the
ones that were extremely miscellaneous (misc.c, utils.c, uxmisc.c,
winmisc.c, winmiscs.c, winutils.c) have been split up into much
smaller pieces.
