[AD] [WIN] Minimise crash

[Mike Green <MGreen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

hey Folks

Whilst debugging my own (crappy) code, I came across an interesting quirk in
the allegro windows code.

Consider the following program

#include <allegro.h>
#include <winalleg.h>

int main(void)
{
	int a;
	allegro_init();
	set_gfx_mode(GFX_AUTODETECT_WINDOWED,320,240,0,0);
	while(!key[KEY_ESC])
	{
		a^=1;
	}
	return 0;
}
END_OF_MAIN();


Simple enough?

When this is run, we are presented with an empty window.

Now, if we try to minimise this window - No problem

Upon trying to minise using windows/m combination, or using the minimise all
shortcut, allegro crashes. A similar thing may happen with alt+tab
combinations.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Mike
