FW: xwinclip i18n patch

["Harold Hunt" <huntharo at msu dot edu>]

This is Kensuke Matsuzaki's second I18N patch for xwinclip.

Let me know what you guys think of it.

I'm going to apply it within a few days, with the change that it will
determine if you are running Windows 95/98/Me or Windows NT/2000/XP before
it tries calling GetClipboardData with CF_UNICODETEXT, which only works on
NT/2000/XP.

Hi.

I send new patch that use Xutf8* and CF_UNICODETEXT.

Previous patch use Xmb*, but XLocase doesn't well on
ja_JP.SJIS(Japanese encoding), so it is necessary for Japanese
to apply Mr Fujieda's I18n extension for Cygwin DLL.

New patch workes without Fujieda's path.

GetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT) is supported only NT/2000/XP.
And CP_UTF8 for WideCharToMultiByte is not supported in 95.

I used it for dozens minutes on Windows 2000/XP.
I can cut&paste Japanesse text between Internet Explorer/Notepad
on Windows and Emacs/Mozilla/KWord on X.
It seems this patch works well.
But I have not tested other locale something like Chinese, Korean, Thai.
