A comment as to why the init() needs to be called before creating the window
would be great

+    application_init();
+
     gWindow = create_sk_window(NULL, argc, argv);
 
     // drain any events that occurred before gWindow was assigned.
     while (SkEvent::ProcessEvent());
 
-    // Start normal Skia sequence
-    application_init();
-
     gWindow->loop();
 
     delete gWindow;
     application_term();
     return 0;
 }
 
 // SkEvent handlers
 
 void SkEvent::SignalNonEmptyQueue()
 {
     if (gWindow) {
         gWindow->post_linuxevent();
     }
 }
 
 void SkEvent::SignalQueueTimer(SkMSec delay)
 {
     itimerval newTimer;
     newTimer.it_interval.tv_sec = 0;
     newTimer.it_interval.tv_usec = 0;
     newTimer.it_value.tv_sec = 0;
     newTimer.it_value.tv_usec = delay * 1000;
 
     setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, &newTimer, NULL);
 }
