[Coco] NitrOS9 build errors

[Bob Devries]

Tormod:

I applied the "-9" option to one of the makefiles, and it properly sets the 
96TPI bit, and the entry in index.html now shows the disk image as being 96 
TPI, Double Density, Double Sided; meaning that the Toolshed OS9 ID command 
properly identifies the LSN0 DD.FMT setting.

Is there an easy (==fast) way to go through all the makefiles and identify 
and insert the proper code?
