It is working on Windows too, sort of ...

The big problem is that having a backend module with the name sdl.dll
that depends on SDL.dll is no good idea on a system that isn't case
sensitive ;-). In brief: I can get test/gfxtest.exe with sdlgl backend
working, but nothing else.

Even if I would rename the backend modules, I am unsure what would
happen when trying to load multiple modules with the same name. It'll
be the first thing I try though ...

In the worst case, we might have to use backend module names like
gfx_sdl, input_sdl, main_sdl, etc. pp. . That means some changes to
the build and some code changes, but if it gives us dynamic backend
loading across platforms, so it be :-).
