 *  The timer callback function may run in a different thread than your

 *  
 *  The maximum resolution of this timer is 10 ms, which means that if
 *  you request a 16 ms timer, your callback will run approximately 20 ms
 *  later on an unloaded system.  If you wanted to set a flag signaling
 *  a frame update at 30 frames per second (every 33 ms), you might set a 
 *  timer for 30 ms:
 *  \code
 *    SDL_SetTimer((33/10)*10, flag_update);

 *  
 *  If you use this function, you need to pass ::SDL_INIT_TIMER to SDL_Init().
 *  
 *  Under UNIX, you should not use raise or use SIGALRM and this function
 *  in the same program, as it is implemented using setitimer().  You also
 *  should not use this function in multi-threaded applications as signals
 *  to multi-threaded apps have undefined behavior in some implementations.
