reblue: recompiling Blue Dragon from DVD 1

reblue uses ReXGlue to recompile Blue Dragon from game files extracted from DVD 1, then builds a native executable with game-specific file, memory and patch code. The author reports that this part is barely playable and that support for the full game remains in progress.
