revive the noPaintOnScreen fix on Windows

The original commit message follows.

Fixes:   Fix the windows PaintOnScreen issue once and for all

Details: To allow both the case where X11 people accidentally set
         PaintOnScreen (which should not have any effect on windows)
         and where people set it and subclass with paintEngine() {
         return 0 } to use GDI / DirectX we do this rather nasty hack.
