[mapguide-internals] MapGuide open source builds

[Traian Stanev]

Yes, I did a 64 bit FDO build using externally installed dependent third party libraries last week on Ubuntu, and it worked out pretty well. I did not compile all providers though, so I can't speak for all the dependencies, just xerces/xalan and the like.
