Subject: Re: [PATCH] *CRITICAL* 8bit direct RGB palette not being created
I think that SDL_AllocFormat should create the palette for all 8bit
surfaces. And when the RGBAmasks match the normal 3:3:2:0 we need to
apply the old behavior. If the mask doesn't match that, then we need
to make the right palette assuming the masks are valid (I don't think
we validate any masks for high color surfaces...so we wouldn't here)
Then there's always a palette available for the 8bit surfaces.
This restores the normal behavior and allows for masks to create
palettes automatically for odd masks even, which would be a neato
thing to have in there, as SDL never did this before.

| 3 SDL_SemWaitTimeout\- Lock a semaphore, but only wait up to a specified maximum time\&. | |
| 4 .SH "SYNOPSIS" | |
| 5 .PP | |

| 9 \fBint \fBSDL_SemWaitTimeout\fP\fR(\fBSDL_sem *sem, Uint32 timeout\fR); | |
| 10 .SH "DESCRIPTION" | |
| 11 .PP | |
| 12 \fBSDL_SemWaitTimeout()\fP is a varient of \fISDL_SemWait\fR with a maximum timeout value\&. If the value of the semaphore pointed to by \fBsem\fR is positive (greater than zero) it will atomically decrement the semaphore value and return 0, otherwise it will wait up to \fBtimeout\fR milliseconds trying to lock the semaphore\&. This function is to be avoided if possible since on some platforms it is implemented by polling the semaphore every millisecond in a busy loop\&. | |
| 13 .PP | |
| 14 After \fBSDL_SemWaitTimeout()\fP is successful, the semaphore can be released and its count atomically incremented by a successful call to \fISDL_SemPost\fR\&. | |
| 15 .SH "RETURN VALUE" | |
| 16 .PP | |
| 17 Returns \fB0\fR if the semaphore was successfully locked or either \fBSDL_MUTEX_TIMEOUT\fR or \fB-1\fR if the timeout period was exceeded or there was an error, respectivly\&. | |
| 18 .PP | |
| 19 If the semaphore was not successfully locked, the semaphore will be unchanged\&. | |
