What I interpretted, when the idea initially was proposed, was to use
the background thread with a new procedure, not the input procedure,
to increment retrace_count, and for vsync to busy loop until
retrace_count increments.
It'd be the same thing as my patch except that you busy-wait instead of 
calling select().  I can live with that.
The problem is that the background thread runs at 100Hz.  You can't 
update retrace_count at some arbitrary rate without introducing another 
thread, which is just overkill.
