To enable the Debug Layer, set the hint, SDL_HINT_RENDER_DIRECT3D11_DEBUG to '1'.
The Debug Layer will be turned off by default, both in Release and Debug builds (of SDL).

Reopening as compilation with ANSI C throws lots of unnecessary warnings, both using MinGW and using Linux GCC. (BTW, what happened? MinGW is broken to all hell. sdl2-config does not even link SDLMain anymore?)
I think this may have been lost somewhere, so again: GCC supports inlining via __inline__ in all known versions of GCC, regardless of the C standard in use. Please don't assume that __STRICT_ANSI__ implies no inlining support.

The problem in question is caused by changeset 7771 (http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/4434498bf4b9 / https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2121)
The redefinition of __inline__ (introduced by the addition of begin_code.h:128's "|| __STRICT_ANSI__") results in mingw's gcc throwing multiple
warning: always_inline function might not be inlinable [-Wattributes]
as well as a whole bunch of redefinitions of mingw internals which break linking of projects including the SDL2 headers.

Fixes the version check for some functions that are only present with the MSVC 2013 CRT libraries.
I did my testing wrong and failed to see that 2012 doesn't have these functions. Microsoft implemented them in their upcoming 2013 version, though. The attached patch changes it to the check for the next version.
I also removed the HAVE_ITOA because that would require linking with oldnames.lib and it's easier to just let the SDL implementation take over.
This is part of an overall effort to use the name, "WinRT", rather than "WindowsRT" (or "Windows RT"), as the shorthand name often seems to mean something different than the longhand name. (WinRT is an API, Windows RT is a product name)
We needed a bit, so we're hoping no one needs this effect, especially when
it's fairly close to SDL_HAPTIC_SINE, we hope.
SDL_HAPTIC_LEFTRIGHT maps to XInput's functionality, so this removes the SINE
code for the XInput driver to keep things clean.
This also makes the simplified Rumble API use SDL_HAPTIC_LEFTRIGHT if
SDL_HAPTIC_SINE isn't available, to keep XInput working.
When we break the ABI, and can extend the supported capabilities field from
a Uint16, we'll add SDL_HAPTIC_SQUARE back in.
This patch is based on work by Ethan Lee.
q66
after updating SDL2 to the latest RC I'm unable to build my game engine under mingw crosscompiling environment for Windows (32bit, hosted on freebsd 64bit).
The error is in SDL_thread.h with messages like this: http://codepad.org/jEQXd3Yq
The problem is, while _beginthreadex return type is correctly mapped to uintptr_t (as specified by Microsoft), the return type under mingw is unsigned long int (same size, different signature), resulting in the error above.
The reason it didn't error before is this: http://codepad.org/8FAbKAxz
You can see the _beginthreadex case is only used without HAVE_LIBC defined; at one point though, SDL_config_windows.h was changed like this:
-/* Enabled for SDL 1.2 (binary compatibility) */
-#define HAVE_LIBC 1
+/* This is disabled by default to avoid C runtime dependencies and manifest requirements */
resulting in these errors.
This #errors if you're using an SDK or deployment target that is less
than 10.6 and 10.5, respectively, and cleans up uses of
MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED and MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED according
to those requirements.

Adds a condition so only the MSVC 2012 compiler defines the macros for the functions of its version.
Attaching a patch that adds a condition so that the HAVE_X supported by MSVC 2012 only get defined with that compiler. MSVC 2008 and 2010 will then build without any modification to the SDL source code.
Also moved HAVE_M_PI to a separate check. The Microsoft headers require _USE_MATH_DEFINES to be defined before they define the constants.
