Fixed bug #166 From the autoconf obsolete macros documentation: Macro: AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM Determine the system type and set output variables to the names of the canonical system types. See section Getting the Canonical System Type, for details about the variables this macro sets. The user is encouraged to use either AC_CANONICAL_BUILD, or AC_CANONICAL_HOST, or AC_CANONICAL_TARGET, depending on the needs. Using AC_CANONICAL_TARGET is enough to run the two other macros. From the documentation for the canonical environments: case $target in i386-*-mach* | i386-*-gnu*) obj_format=aout emulation=mach bfd_gas=yes ;; i960-*-bout) obj_format=bout ;; esac Note that the above example uses $target because it's taken from a tool which can be built on some architecture ($build), run on another ($host), but yet handle data for a third architecture ($target). Such tools are usually part of a compiler suite, they generate code for a specific $target. However $target should be meaningless for most packages. If you want to base a decision on the system where your program will be run, make sure you use the $host variable.

.SH "NAME"
SDL_LoadWAV\- Load a WAVE file
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBSDL_AudioSpec *\fBSDL_LoadWAV\fP\fR(\fBconst char *file, SDL_AudioSpec *spec, Uint8 **audio_buf, Uint32 *audio_len\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBSDL_LoadWAV\fP This function loads a WAVE \fBfile\fR into memory\&.
.PP
If this function succeeds, it returns the given \fI\fBSDL_AudioSpec\fP\fR, filled with the audio data format of the wave data, and sets \fBaudio_buf\fR to a \fBmalloc\fP\&'d buffer containing the audio data, and sets \fBaudio_len\fR to the length of that audio buffer, in bytes\&. You need to free the audio buffer with \fI\fBSDL_FreeWAV\fP\fR when you are done with it\&.
.PP
This function returns \fBNULL\fP and sets the SDL error message if the wave file cannot be opened, uses an unknown data format, or is corrupt\&. Currently raw, MS-ADPCM and IMA-ADPCM WAVE files are supported\&.
.SH "EXAMPLE"
.PP
.nf
\f(CWSDL_AudioSpec wav_spec;
Uint32 wav_length;
Uint8 *wav_buffer;

/* Load the WAV */
if( SDL_LoadWAV("test\&.wav", &wav_spec, &wav_buffer, &wav_length) == NULL ){
  fprintf(stderr, "Could not open test\&.wav: %s
", SDL_GetError());
  exit(-1);
