#1077: swap Authorize and Deny buttons on Windows

 A frend just added me to his MSN contacts list, which caused a prompt to
 appear at the bottom of my buddy list along the lines of "<name> is
 requesting authorizations: <Deny> <Authorize>".

 I using Windows, so I expect the positive action (e.g. <OK>) to be on the
 left and the negative action (e.g. <Cancel>) to be on the right.

 I instinctively clicked the left button, which caused the frend's
 authorization request to be denied.

 Please move the buttons the other way around like I expect. :-)

 (I think there is a property in GTK that allows an application to use the
 platform's standard button ordering.  A quick Google suggests it could be
 <http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkSettings.html#GtkSettings
 --gtk-alternative-button-order>).
