when you open gretl plot controls through "edit", the fonts "button"

Is it a bug? or have i done something awful? :)
A long time ago we decided to use a native Windows function
(ChooseFont) for font selection in our Windows builds, as opposed to
the GTK function that we use on Linux and Mac. It seems that our
ChooseFont usage has been subject to bitrot. I think the best solution
is to go over to GTK font selection on Windows. I've done a little
testing and it seems to work fine; once I've tested a bit more
thoroughly I'll put up a new snapshot.
