[PATCH] winmm_test.exe fix for CALLBACK_THREAD

[Stéphan Kochen]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hello again,

"wine winmm_test.exe wave" reliably locks up for me after calling
waveOutOpen() with the CALLBACK_THREAD flag, waiting for a WOM_OPEN
message to arrive. Which never happens because I believe the thread
doesn't have a message queue.

This patch implements the solution mentioned in the "remarks" section of
the MSDN page on PostThreadMessage:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms644946.aspx

Fixed it for me.

If it works on windows then the test is ok, and wine needs to be fixed 
elsewhere.
