I think the issue at the moment is that there's some code in the OS X main() 
that doesn't conform to this (the mail I sent on Feb. 23 contains precisely that 
code). Currently, just leaving away SDL_main is broken on OS X because of this 
issue. This code could be moved to SDL_Init without causing problems - I'm 
executing it directly before SDL_Init in libavg.

Anyway, I'd already asked Sam if a patch for this was ok and gotten a yes, but I 
probably won't have the time to do it, so...

Regards,
