OK. I see three ways:

- Something like this in bindings.el:

(define-key global-map (if (eq system-type 'windows-nt) [scroll]
[Scroll_Lock]) 'scroll-lock-mode)

- Leave bindings.el as is and rebind the command to [scroll] in
lisp/term/w32-win.el,

- Or use some of the translation keymaps to translate [scroll] into
[Scroll_Lock].

Which one makes more sense?
