[NTG-context] kpse.rb bad guess for distribution (web2c vs miktex)

[George N. White III]

I use MiKTeX's package manager to install updates on linux TeXLive.
I put mpm in /opt/miktex/bin, which causes
kpse.rb to deduce that distribution=miktex (rather than web2c).  Here
is a trivial patch that adds a test for mswin:

$ diff -C 3 kpse.rb.orig kpse.rb
*** kpse.rb.orig        2007-01-11 11:52:06.000000000 -0400
--- kpse.rb     2007-11-23 12:59:11.000000000 -0400
