Hmm...
On Linux, using that code, I place the mouse pointer over a corner or edge of 
the window, hold down the left mouse button, drag the mouse, and the window 
resizes as the mouse moves. It stops resizing when the mouse button is 
released.

I never tried it on Windows, mainly because I don't have Windows, but I don't 
see why it wouldn't work. Maybe Windows only sends the resize event when the 
button is released? Are you updating the screen when you get a resize event?
           SDL_UpdateRect(screen, 0, 0, 0, 0);
