Here's the version that changes the directory.  Note that this 
hard-codes all projects to use %ACE_ROOT%\lib\x64, which may not be what 
you want if you're going to run this against app code and not just ACE 
itself.

..\bin\mwc.pl -type vc8 ace.mwc -value_project 
libout=$(ACE_ROOT)/lib/x64 -value_template platforms=x64 -name_modifier 
*_x64libout -apply_project
