I tried this way, but Mag still gets no mouse input. :( Maybe, Mag it is 
broken? (DOpE  works this way, even without 'ev' to be assigned, but Mag 
doesn't) Or, is it correct to assign the same object to 'fb' and 'ev'? 
Is it automatically typecasted? (As I understood, 'conwin' is 
L4Re::Console, which is derived from L4Re::Video::Goos and L4Re::Event, 
so here is the implicit typecast)
