This isn't an SDL limitation, on platforms where you have to do that,
it's a platform limitation. As far as I'm aware, SDL doesn't care _what_
thread you use (but if the underlying platform will screw up, it can't
help you)...so as a general guideline, SDL's documentation tells you not
to do it.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
