Summary: $tcl_platform(platform) != [tk windowingsystem]

Initial Comment:
When trying to get cygwin Tk runnung as win32 GUI in
stead of X11, noticing that in many of the library/*.tcl
files $tcl_platform(platform) is checked to be "windows".

However, when running cygwin, tcl_platform(platform)
is "unix", so all those checks are wrong. The result is
that many bindings don't work correctly.

Solution: modify the checks for $tcl_platform(platform)
eq "windows" to use [tk windowsingsystem] eq "win32"
in steadm.
