Fix start and end radial endpoint calculations which were totally wrong.
* gdk/win32/gdkdraw.c (gdk_draw_arc): Fix start and end radial endpoint calculations which were totally wrong. (A little RTFMing helps a lot ;-) * gtk/makefile.{cygwin,msc}: Use libintl extracted from glibc from a separate directory, not from gettext, because of licensing issues (we want to use the LGPL version). * README.win32: Mention the intl from glibc vs from gettext issue.
