Note that this patch looks worse than it is - an existing function (getproxies() for all platforms other than Win/Mac) has been moved, renamed and indentation changed, but the body of that function is identical.  Windows now allows the environment variables to override the registry.

Oops, WaitNextEvent was hand-coded, and it also needed the h->H conversion for PyArg_ParseTuple format strings.

Declare fileno() with prototype if USE_GUSI2 defined. This isn't really the right place, but it will have to do for now.

If any of the builds in a group fails offer to stop the fullbuild process and open the failing projects in codewarrior.

Added a "compile-time" flag PPC_ONLY, if set we make ppc-only applications without posting the dialog. This is the normal situation since 1.6alfa (no more 68k support).

(The gethostname() one, for instance, breaks on several systems, because

I purposely decided not to include the summary of used #defines like Tim did
