Better: change the definition of os-class in envos.fs.  This also
fixes the dosekey.fs problem.

Hmm, ~/.gforth-history works well enough for me (ok, now a newer
cygwin1.dll is installed on my test system than included in the zip
file, which might make a difference).

Unsurprisingly, vt100key.fs works nicely when talking to an xterm,
while doskey.fs does not work.  Deciding such things by osclass is not
a good idea.
