GTK+ works on Wine

That's it.  Unfortunately this meant rewriting the nice order.st in awk
(not because of GNU Smalltalk bugs; just that it was stupid to have a
Windows program that would read Unix paths and spit out Unix paths, so
any program running on the build machine would do), but well it works.

Sockets compile and do not crash, but they are still broken (even the
#microTest does not work...).  However, for now I think I'm done.

I might start distributing binary packages for beta testing in late
August.  I'm not going to do much on gst the next few weeks.

Why somebody would be like to have GTK+/GST under Wine? I don't find  
the point.

Two reasons:

1) It is just how I tested the Windows port, since I do not have a
Windows PC.  I'm not saying "it works on Windows" until it's tested.
It's not optimal, but it enabled huge leaps and I'll be able to
distribute packages that (hopefully) will work on Windows.

2) Cross-compilation.  With Gwenael's work Tcl/Tk will not be needed
anymore and Fedora provides packages for all other dependencies of GNU
Smalltalk.  So, this will first of all enable the aforementioned binary
packages.  With some experimentation, it will allow other people to
compile GNU Smalltalk without the extremely long configure/make times of
MSYS and Cygwin.
