bash build fix


Building bash using B19.1 failed, until I made changes as below to the
function extract_info() in file mkbuiltins.c

mkbuild was translating .def files incorrectly. The problem arises because
read() returns the number of characters in the file, after converting
CR/LFs. This number is smaller than that returned by stat()in finfo.st_size.

Someone reported the problem on this list:
http://www.cygnus.com/ml/gnu-win32/1998-May/0012.html
but no solution ever was posted.
