From: Darrell Walisser
Subject: Yet another OS X cursor bug
The synopsis:
1. Call SDL_ShowCursor(0);
2. Call SDL_SetVideoMode();
3. Call SDL_GetEvent();
3. Call SDL_ShowCursor(1);
The result: Sometimes the cursor doesn't come back! Ack! Oddly enough,
it does come back when mousing over the dock or clicking in the menu
bar. But that's besides the point.
The reason why this is happening is a flaw in the handling of
activation/deactivation events. The short explanation is that the
HideCursor() and ShowCursor() calls must be balanced, but if the cursor
was initially hidden, HideCursor() was called again on the activate
event - so now the next ShowCursor() fails (as does the next, and the
next, for some reason).
So, here's the patch. All it does is keep track of the
HideCursor()/ShowCursor() calls so that they will always be balanced.

Wish list for the 1.3 development branch: * Use /etc/fb.modes, if available, like GGI does * Add mousewheel events (new unified event architecture?) * DirectInput joystick support needs to be implemented * Be able to enumerate and select available audio and video drivers * Fullscreen video mode support for MacOS X * Explicit vertical retrace wait (maybe separate from SDL_Flip?) * Shaped windows, windows without borders * Multiple windows, multiple display support * SDL_INIT_EVENTTHREAD on Windows and MacOS? * Add a timestamp to events * Use RDTSC for timer resolution on x86 hardware * Add audio input API * Add hardware accelerated scaled blit * Add hardware accelerated alpha blits * Redesign blitting architecture to allow blit plugins In the jump from 1.2 to 1.3, we should change the SDL_Rect members to int and evaluate all the rest of the datatypes. This is the only place we should do it though, since the 1.2 series should not break binary compatibility in this way. Requests: * PCM and CDROM volume control (deprecated, but possible)
