Windows version report

Hi,

the windows version ran fine here.

But the windows machine I used had a intel 855 chipset (the machine is 3 years
old, this chipset is still very common) and its OpenGL implementation doesn’t
have the GL_ARB_texture_rectangle extension, so text rendering is broken.

As a quick workaround, I’ll add a codepath falling back to Qt’s renderText
when this extension is not present.

All later intel chipsets (9xx) do have this extension.

OK, workaround committed to trunk (explanation in commit), without falling
back to QGLWidget::renderText()!

have to turn off laptop because battery is out,
