I think that it is time to really get rid of it I have two more demos that I 
have been playing with that work when MOUSE_HACK is not defined. Dominions II 
(1a) and Starlancer (2a). starlancer thinks it is running in a 640X400 window an 
the program itself is setting the cursor at x=320 and y=200 and dinput trys to 
put it at x=320 and y=240.

Does anyone know of a game that game that needs it? IE: does not work without it 
defined?
