SDL_PollEvent (&event) and Shift+Scroll Wheel

I am having a bit of difficulty getting Scroll Wheel events when the
shift key is held down. I am constantly checking for SDL events with
SDL_PollEvent, and when I just use my scroll wheel on my mouse, I get
them just fine. And I also get events for pressing and releasing the
shift key. But while the shift key is down, all subsequent scroll
wheel input doesn’t register with SDL_PollEvent until the shift key is
released. This is very odd because it used to work just fine.
Perhaps there is a bug in SDL 1.2.13, because things were working when
I was using SDL 1.2.12.

Could someone please confirm that mouse scroll wheel input works or
does not work while the shift key is pressed?

Maybe the scroll wheel is remapped to horizontal scrolling when the
shift key is held down? (Recent SDL versions have special button
constants and stuff for that.)

Maybe you’ll find some hints here:
