[XviD-devel] OutputDebugString in portab.h

Lately, I'm getting a build error in xvidcore's portab.h when compiling
the debug version of ffdshow's XviD support, as doing an Unicode build
maps OutputDebugString to OutputDebugStringW, which of course doesn't
like the char* that's passed to it in your implementation of DPRINTF.

Using OutputDebugStringA directly instead (since the buffer is a char[]
anyway) fixes the problem - which in itself is quite bogus because
DPRINTF isn't even used here, but meh...

Patch, as trivial as it may be, attached - I don't think it can cause
any negative side effects...
