Fixed bug #713 Don't clamp the mouse coordinates to the video surface size, instead clamp them to the last known window size. This allows users to get the correct mouse coordinates even if they don't call SDL_SetVideoMode() in response to an SDL_VIDEORESIZE event (used as a hack to retain the OpenGL context on Windows and Linux after a window resize)

><P
>The SDL library is designed to make it easy to write games that run on Linux, *BSD, MacOS, Win32 and BeOS using the various native high-performance media interfaces, (for video, audio, etc) and presenting a single source-code level API to your application. SDL is a fairly low level API, but using it, completely portable applications can be written with a great deal of flexibility.</P
