Wow, that was an interesting bug to chase. It was a timing issue: it seems that
for some reason, a certain time must pass between ShowMenuBar() being called in
QZ_UnsetVideoMode() and the application quitting. Before rev. 1885, this delay
was provided by the slow hand-coded fade. With the asynchronous Core Graphics
fading introduced in rev. 1885, that delay was no longer present (most of the
time) and the bug became apparent. Adding an SDL_Delay(100) somewhere between
ShowMenuBar() and the end of QZ_VideoQuit() lowered the frequency of the bug
appearing from "almost every time" to "very rarely" here.
However, there is another solution: doing the ShowMenuBar() before releasing
the captured display instead of afterwards. Apparently, no delay is necessary
in that case, and it looks nicer to me anyway because it is the reverse order
of the way things are set up in the beginning: capture display - set video mode
- hide menu bar - ... - show menu bar - reset video mode - release captured
display. So, this is what the attached patch does.
In addition, I've taken the liberty of
- removing some unused code that I forgot to remove in rev. 1885,
- fixing two warnings about undeclared functions in SDL_QuartzVideo.m by
including OpenGL.h (whose name is a bit misleading - it only declares CGL
stuff, so there's no interference with SDL_opengl.h).

Hi,
if "configure" is given an explicit --libdir, the sdl-config still contains
the default "${exec_prefix}/lib" for runtime linker path.
That should be changed to $libdir, as this is where the library goes to...

updated makefiles for 1.2.11 release
The new Watcom-Win32.zip
- includes the new testcursor test, and
- doesn't link to dxguid.lib anymore (by defining INITGUID for
SDL_dx5events.c),
to fix issue with stack calling convention (-6s can now be used instead of
-6r
in CFLAGS).
