Hey, would you mind creating a bug on http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=SDL so that this doesn't get forgotten in the mailing list?
Thanks,
Vittorio

After setting relative mouse mode on OS X, the first time the mouse is

at the time to the fixed point it then reports delta from).

In my case, an FPS with mouse controlling the view angle, this means
the view jumps to some crazy orientation the first time you touch the
mouse.

I tried working around it in various ways, but the only solution I
found that worked was to simply ignore the first event the comes in
after setting relative mouse mode.

Does the attached seem like a reasonable workaround?

Kevin.
