Sendmail/Mac: initialize correctly [patch]

[David Reitter]

The current implementation of the defcustom `send-mail-function'  
doesn't initialize the value correctly because it looks at `window- 
system', which has a different value at compile time, and the initial  
value of the defcustoms is stored at that point (ldefs, I think)  
because it's an autoload.

The below patch fixes that; I'm not aware of a more elegant solution  
(I asked in an earlier thread on Nov 24).
