Subject: SDL Patch
Hio,
I saw your last call on the mailing list. Here's a patch which I
submitted about two weeks ago which hasn't made it in.
In the current sdl.m4, there's a bug where if your configure.ac, you
have AC_LANG(C++) specified, it won't properly compile and link the SDL
test program when you run the configure script. This is because only the
default CFLAGS is overriden in sdl.m4, and in the patch below, I've
fixed it so it overrides CXXFLAGS as well, allowing it to work with g++.

Subject: [PATCH] fix locking in src/timer/SYS_timer.c
SDL_SetTimer has a typo in CVS. This code was added since 1.2.8. The
result is that the SDL_timer_mutex is locked twice and never unlocked,
breaking systems that use a threaded timer implementation.

document associated with the app, the document(s) are passed to SDL_main()
as if they were command line arguments. Otherwise, the command line is always
empty and there is no way for the app to recover this information.

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.
package...make the symbols defined by HID Utilities static inside SDL so that
an app can link against their own copy of this package without symbol clash.
The current GetVideoMode() function stops at the first mode which has any
dimensions smaller than the one asked, and gives the previous in the list.
If I ask 336x224 with this list:
768x480 768x240 640x400 640x200 384x480 384x240 320x400 320x200
SDL will give me 640x400, because 640x200 as height smaller than what I
asked.
However the best mode is the smaller which has both dimensions bigger
than the one asked (384x240 in my example).
This patch fixes this, plus it does not rely on a sorted video mode list.
