Apparently you might get strange paths from GetModuleFileName(), such as
short path names or UNC filenames, so this avoids that problem. Since you have
to tapdance with linking different libraries and defining macros depending on
what Windows you plan to target, we dynamically load the API we need, which
works on all versions of Windows (on Win7, it'll load a compatibility wrapper
for the newer API location).
What a mess.
This also now does the right thing if there isn't enough space to store the
path, looping with a larger allocated buffer each try.
Fixes Bugzilla #2435.

Currently the keymapnotify event handling is commented out as FIXME in SDL_x11events.c (It looks like this may have functioned SDL1.2).
Not handling this event means that if a window manager shortcut such as ALT+SPACE is used, SDL will send an ALT key down signal, but not an up signal. Also querying SDL about the key state, it believes the ALT key remains pressed.
X passes the events keypress (alt), ?focusout?, ?focusin?, keymapnotify.
This lets windows know when they are dropping a mouse event because their
hit test reported something other than SDL_HITTEST_NORMAL. It lets them know
exactly where in the event queue this happened.

This is currently implemented for X11, Cocoa, Windows, and DirectFB.

This allows an app to know when a set of drops are coming in a grouping of
some sort (for example, a user selected multiple files and dropped them all
on the window with a single drag), and when that set is complete.
This also adds a window ID to the drop events, so the app can determine to
which window a given drop was delivered. For application-level drops (for
example, you launched an app by dropping a file on its icon), the window ID
will be zero.
Specifically: always on top, skip taskbar, tooltip, utility, and popup menu.
This is currently only implemented for X11.

Notably: it sets the error string to inform you that your custom SDL is built
without xrandr support, which apparently has been a support issue for
Unreal Engine 4 developers.
This is often useful for SDL apps that aren't meant to be games: the
integrated GPU starts up faster, uses less power, and is often more than
fast enough.
Note that even with this change, the app will still default to the more
powerful, discrete GPU if one is available; an app that prefers the integrated
GPU will still need the NSSupportsAutomaticGraphicsSwitching key properly
set in its Info.plist and Mac OS X 10.7 or later.

According to https://msdn.microsoft.com/de-de/library/2kzt1wy3%28v=vs.120%29.aspx when one is using /MT for msvc compilations the libcmt.lib is already linked to the binary. This lib includes the symbol that is now guarded (see attached patch) by the #ifndef _MT.
