Simulators built for cygwin or mingw don't respond to button presses anymore, presumably since r26065 (where SDL_WaitEvent() was replaced with SDL_PollEvent(), along with some threading changes).

This is reproducible using wine.
This task depends upon

http://lists.libsdl.org/pipermail/sdl-libsdl.org/2004-August/045410.html seems to be the same problem.

It appears that on windows event polling needs to be done in the main thread. In fact, hacking a SDL_PollEvent() call into main.c makes me getting at least an event. I'll have a more deeply look later.
