[ANNOUNCEMENT] Overlay and No DirectInput Test 4

Oh, I'm positive that it will segfault on all machines at the end... that's
something that I know would happen, but I don't really want to start working
on making the shutdown process smooth until I know what has to be shutdown.
I think that segfault behavior may have pre-dated my changes.

Also saw this when I ran xwin under gdb...

(gdb) run -screen 0 640x480x16

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x4cced8 in miSpriteCloseScreen ()

Starting program: /usr/X11R6/bin/xwin.exe -screen 0 640x480x16

(gdb) bt
#0  0x4cced8 in miSpriteCloseScreen ()
#1  0x403611 in main ()
#2  0x61003641 in _size_of_stack_reserve__ ()
#3  0x610038b5 in _size_of_stack_reserve__ ()
#4  0x610038f4 in _size_of_stack_reserve__ ()
#5  0x7a7091 in cygwin_crt0 ()

(gdb)

so maybe in miSpriteCloseScreen ???
