Following some experimental changes I did on macosx I came to the 
conclusion, same as Marvin and Alexandre, that it cannot be simply fixed 
in the display modules yet. It requires to split the display module(s) 
on macos/iOS in two to separate the NSVIew/UIView that can talk to the 
core (resize, mouse events) as window_t and one that is the current one 
used by the display modules that will no longer report anything to the 
core and thus will not interfere with the display_lock.

So I vote to revert this patch for now as a temporary fix (not that this 
patch is essential anyway).
