[SDL] SDL_CreateThread with C++ method as a parameter

[Brian]

The following compiles and runs for me:

class Tetra {
public:
    void runThread()
    {
        SDL_Thread *thread = SDL_CreateThread(&StaticThreadProcGravity,this);
        int ret;
        SDL_WaitThread(thread,&ret);
        std::cout << "thread ended with status " << ret << '\n';
    }

    int ThreadGravity() { return 0; }

   static int StaticThreadProcGravity(void* pParam)
   {
       return ((Tetra*)pParam)->ThreadGravity();
   }
};

Is there anything that you are doing differently (apart from the body
of the thread function itself).
