That was a kludge. I always meant to do some cleanup there as soon as I 
got Summagraphics to work with win98 (which has not yet happened :-( ).

I'd rather have two calls, one for absolute and one for relative, where 
relative checks if the current active mouse is relative or absolute, and 
in the latter case just calls absolute and vice versa.
