  current design flaws:

  - derived from TCustomCheckBox instead of TButtonControl

  Delphi compatibility:

   - derived from TCustomCheckBox instead of TButtonControl
   - alignment property is missing
   - lots of unknown issues
     
  TODO:

    - check for Delphi compatibility
    * Who's responsible for the fGroup - pointer and who'll free the
      memory allocated for it??????
    * make serious tests
      
  Bugs:

    - s.a. TCustomCheckbox

  Method: TRadioButton.CreateWnd
  Params:  none

  Create the visual component of a TradioButton.

  HINT: Since every Radiobutton has to belong to a group, we'll search
        our owners componentlist for other radiobuttons. If one is found 
	with it's group property assigned, this instance will get the
	handle of that one as it's fGroup property, otherwise the group 
	property will be 0.
	In the interface we can then use the group property to decide if
	a new group has to be created or which radiobutton is the
	predecessor.
	This behaviour is especially neccessary for the GTK bindings.
