[PD] new win32 joystick example patches

[David Merrill]

Aah, that's interesting, I didn't know that was there already. Will 
[hidin] eventually expose an identical interface as [hid], so that input 
devices can be used in a cross-platform manner?

I just tried [hidin] out with my Logitech joystick, and the 4 continuous 
axes seem to work, but the buttons aren't producing any output..
