I've made significant improvements to this code.  See the patch below.

It now uses GTK timeouts, and will accelerate the scrolling depending
on how long you hold the button down (max 3 steps per scroll right
now).

I had to use a trick (see buttonpress_instance) to get buttonpresses
happening in quick succession to work the way you'd expect.

Comments?

    It's really hard to define what "unexpected behavior" means when you're
                       talking about Windows.
