[SDL] Scrap for OSX (copy and paste)

[E. Wing]

This error does not ring a bell. But clarify this, are you trying to
get Sam's scrap code to interoperate with my version? If so, don't do
this. My version is not compatible with Sam's version (because he did
it wrong :P). My modifications post/get directly from the native
clipboard system using the well known text and image types so you can
copy/paste from standard apps like Notepad and Paint. I think Sam was
using some user defined type or something so the only thing that could
exchange data was two instances of scrap.
