Commit of compiler flags addition:

       Flags are passed from the command line all the way through
build environments to environment variables.
      Flags are specified using +name=value and values are quoted
using escaped quotes when necessary.

Future work includes using the flags in the compiler wrapper script
and hopefully updating the parser for a gentler user experience of
the spec language.
