Two proposed patches to fix part of the problems:

Note the last dxe makefile dif is partial - it doesn't fix the dxe3gen
compile/link cross issues.

Changing the dxe.h include file was just the first issue - it also uses
unconst.h to silence warnings - which isn't universally available.

I may just put an ifdef in to use relative syntax if the cross LD
define string is passed.  

In the case of big endian - I might make dxe3gen generate a "dummy"
file so the build mostly works, except for EMU387.DXE?

So this still needs to be resolved, but that's all I have time from 
here in Wiesbaden
