because i have dumped it, after there where no success ;)

it was basically like this: put a crititcal section and the _debug stuff
(stolen from another dll) in the file and call Enter/Leave on the
start/end of the find_joydevs method.

in general i dont really like the idea of calling find_joydevs every
time it *might* be needed and i would prefer to go a way like
registering also hooks in the dinput-implementations to allow the
devices to "find themself" on dinput.dll's startup (add a init-method
where the enum/create hooks are). this is what i would have tried next
(and i guess still will). there i can put a critical secion also.
