Changes
=======

1) winkeybd.c/winIsFakeCtrl_L - Call Sleep (0) if the first call to
PeekMessage returns nothing.  TweakUI occasionally causes the Alt_R
press/release to not be in the message queue at the time that we
receive the fake Ctrl_L press/release.  Calling Sleep (0) gives up the
rest of our time slice to other apps that need it, which causes the
Alt_R message to show up on our queue.  We can then call PeekMessage
again and check if the Alt_R is there or not.  If it is not there,
then we assume that we have a real Ctrl_L press, if it is there, then
we discard the fake Ctrl_L as usual.  I tested this with the
US-International layout and it seemed to work fine.  I originally
coded this fix with a short "keytest" program and was able to confirm 
that the fix works there as well.  (Harold L Hunt II)

2) win.h, winkeybd.c, winkeybd.h, winwndproc.c - Remove dead code
that was wrapped with #if WIN_NEW_KEYBOARD_SUPPORT.  (Harold L Hunt II)
