(Väinö Järvelä supplied this patch a while ago for 1.5.2.  It no longer
applied cleanly, so I'm reposting it.)

MacBook doesn't seem to recognize MouseRelease-4 and -5 events, at all.
So i added a support for the MouseWheel event, which i limited to Tcl/tk
aqua, as i couldn't test it neither on Linux or Windows. Tcl/tk needs to
be updated from the version that is shipped with OS X 10.4 Tiger, for
this patch to work.
