Summary: call to glFogCoordfEXT fails on Windows

Initial Comment:
PyOpenGL-3.0.0.b1-py2.5egg on Python 2.5.2 on win32

When running NeHe lesson 4.1:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\python25\lib\site-packages\PyOpenGL-3.0.0b1-py2.5.egg\OpenGL\GLUT\special.py", line 110, in safeCall
    return function( *args, **named )
  File "lesson41.py", line 226, in DrawGLScene
    glFogCoordfEXT( 1.0);       glTexCoord2f(0.0, 0.0); glVertex3f(-2.5,-2.5,-15.0);
  File "c:\python25\lib\site-packages\PyOpenGL-3.0.0b1-py2.5.egg\OpenGL\platform\baseplatform.py", line 252, in __call__
    if self.extension and self.load():
  File "c:\python25\lib\site-packages\PyOpenGL-3.0.0b1-py2.5.egg\OpenGL\platform\baseplatform.py", line 234, in load
    func = functionTypeFor( self.DLL )(
NameError: global name 'functionTypeFor' is not defined
GLUT callback forcing low-level exit on error: global name 'functionTypeFor' is not defined

I see no evidence that a global functionTypeFor should be in scope.  The following patch resolves the problem:
