Changes
=======

1) win.h, winkeybd.c, winmultiwindowwndproc.c, winwndproc.c - Remove
winStoreModeKeyStates () function and stop storing mode key state
within the hw/xwin layer.  Instead, query the internal X Server mode
key state, when we know that no key press/release events are pending,
and send key press/release events to get that state in sync with the
Windows mode key states.  This removes the possibility that the
hw/xwin and internal X Server mode key state vectors would get out of
sync.  This is also a general cleanup that utilizes more existing code
and removes some Cygwin-specific code.  (Takuma Murakami)

2) winwndproc.c - Catch WM_ENDSESSION message and perform clean
shutdown.  (Takuma Murakami)

3) winwndproc.c - WM_*KEYDOWN - Discard key presses generated from
Windows auto-repeat (these sorts of auto-repeats are handled by X).
(Takuma Murakami)

4) winmouse.c - Remap mouse buttons here when XFree86Server and
XINPUT are defined, since this combination of flags prevents a lower
layer from performing such remapping.  The end result is that
remapping mouse buttons works for the first time.  (Takuma
Murakami)

5) winconfig.c - Load the US keyboard layout for Japanese keyboards.
This ensures that WM_KEYUP messages are sent for the Caps Lock
key.  (Takuma Murakami, Kensuke Matsuzaki)

6) win.h, winengine.c, winmultiwindowwindow.c, winmultiwindowwm.c,
winpfbdd.c, winshaddd.c, winshadddnl.c, winshadgdi.c, winwindow.h -
Add an engine-specific function that is called after a Windows-window
is created in -multiwindow mode.  This is a start for adding
DirectDraw support to -multiwindow mode.  However, I got a little
confused here and thought that one primary surface would need to be
created per window, which is not correct.  There will be one primary
surface with a clip list that causes blits to stay within the region
of all of our visible windows.  In any case, this is a step in the
right direction.  There code is currently disabled since the engine
setting code only allows the GDI engine when -multiwindow is being
used.  (Harold L Hunt II)
