* When exiting, if the screen resolution has been changed it's not
restored, effectively leaving you with a small window onto a large
desktop, which you can pan around.
         

This is a known limitation of SDL.
       

Are you sure?  Other SDL apps seem to return to the original desktop
resolution just fine.
     

Indeed! Our problem is that we aren't really calling SDL_Quit(). It's in
fg_os_sdl.cxx' fgOSExit(), but this function is never actually used.
fg_exit() calls fgExit() instead.
   

How about putting the SDL_Quit() in an atexit handler installed by the FG's SDL
initialization routine ?
 

I'm pretty sure this was working at some point when the SDL code was 
originally added, but something must have been changed or rearranged and 
we are no longer calling SDL_Quit() on exit ... :-(
