Fixed bug 4034 - Do we really need _DllMainCRTStartup() in every Windows build? 

Andreas Falkenhahn

In src/SDL.c there is this code:

_DllMainCRTStartup(HANDLE hModule,

...

The comment says that this is needed on Watcom C for some reason but why is it included then when building with Visual C as well? Shouldn't it be only included when compiling on Watcom C then?

I'm asking because this code caused me a lot of headaches because I'm building a DLL that contains SDL and I link using /MT and the _DllMainCRTStartup() symbol obviously led to lots of trouble but it wasn't clear to me where the problem was because all I got from the linker was:

LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _main referenced in function ___tmainCRTStartup

So I had to got through each and every object to see what the culprit was. See here for the full story:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25067151/lnk2019-unresolved-external-symbol-main-referenced-in-function-tmaincrtstar/48177067#48177067

So if it isn't necessary on Visual C, please just leave that symbol out on Visual C so that it no longer leads to any trouble. Thanks.
