The current SVN trunk is missing the SDLCALL specifier at numerous locations.
It has to be added for all (possibly user provided) callbacks.
I stumbled over this while creating a makefile for the OpenWatcom compiler for
Win32.
SDL_SemValue() always returns 0. That's because the underlying POSIX
sem_getvalue() is implemented as a noop in Mac OS X. Apart from that,
semaphores do work properly (at least according to test/testsem), so I'm not
sure if this is worth fixing at all.

Subject: Re: Updating SDL for RISC OS
I've attached a zip file with three diffs to get SDL to build on RISC OS.
configure.in.diff and makedeps.sh.diff have been modified so that they
can build the assembler file in video/riscos. You may want to double
check these as I don't know a lot about unix shell programming.
(I've tested them cross-compiling on cygwin).
sdlsysthread.diff is the changes required to SDL_systhread.c for RISC
OS. As you suspected with these changes in place you can delete the
RISC OS specific threading code in thread/riscos.
I've also renamed SDL_riscosASM.s to SDL_riscosASM.S, but I'm never
quite sure how to rename files in CVS, so if you could to this it would
be appreciated.
FIXME:
Change #include <stdlib.h> to #include "SDL_stdlib.h"
Change #include <string.h> to #include "SDL_string.h"
Make sure nothing else broke because of this...

Subject: [SDL] SDL_SemWaitTimeout patch for BeOS
The current SDL-1.2.9/src/thread/beos/SDL_syssem.c returns -1 if the
acquire_sem timeouts which according to the DocWiki is not correct.
I've added support for the B_TIMED_OUT and B_WOULD_BLOCK in the switch.

Subject: SDL Improved semiphore implementation for RISC OS (version 2)
I've attached a new version of the patch for the RISC OS
semaphore processing (in a zip file) that updates it to use
the improved semaphores support in UnixLiib.

Subject: RISC OS SDL Patches
Sam, I've attached a diff of the latest changes to libSDL for RISC OS
support. These changes are by Alan Buckley and myself.
The most significant of these are:
Optimised assembler blit rountines - I've attached the file
src/video/riscos/SDL_riscosASM.s which is needed for this.
Move to using /dev/dsp instead of its own audio implementation.
This means that src/audio/riscos/SDL_drenderer.c should be removed
Typo fixes. Mainly correct spelling of "RISC OS", but some from elsewhere
too.

Subject: Modification for RISC OS version of SDL
Ive attached a zip file with the changes to this email, it contains the
following:
The file sdldiff.txt is the output from cvs diff u. .
The directory thread/riscos contains all the new files to support threading.
Readme.riscos is a new readme file to add.
