Re: SDL main within a module

[Asko Kauppi <askok@...>]

That's a unique idea, thanks... But it is not that different from  
making a separate 'lua51-sdl' binary, just for the sake of SDL  
initialization.  The end result remains, which is SDL's need to  
"hijack" the main loop (and this issue is more of SDL's than Lua's,  
so let's stop?).
