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.

.TH "SDL_SetEventFilter" "3" "Tue 11 Sep 2001, 22:59" "SDL" "SDL API Reference" .SH "NAME" SDL_SetEventFilter\- Sets up a filter to process all events before they are posted to the event queue\&. .SH "SYNOPSIS" .PP \fB#include "SDL\&.h" .sp \fBvoid \fBSDL_SetEventFilter\fP\fR(\fBSDL_EventFilter filter\fR); .SH "DESCRIPTION" .PP This function sets up a filter to process all events before they are posted to the event queue\&. This is a very powerful and flexible feature\&. The filter is prototyped as: .PP .nf \f(CWtypedef int (*SDL_EventFilter)(const SDL_Event *event);\fR .fi .PP If the filter returns \fB1\fR, then the event will be added to the internal queue\&. If it returns \fB0\fR, then the event will be dropped from the queue\&. This allows selective filtering of dynamically\&. .PP There is one caveat when dealing with the \fBSDL_QUITEVENT\fP event type\&. The event filter is only called when the window manager desires to close the application window\&. If the event filter returns 1, then the window will be closed, otherwise the window will remain open if possible\&. If the quit event is generated by an interrupt signal, it will bypass the internal queue and be delivered to the application at the next event poll\&. .PP .RS \fBNote: .PP Events pushed onto the queue with \fI\fBSDL_PushEvent\fP\fR or \fI\fBSDL_PeepEvents\fP\fR do not get passed through the event filter\&. .RE .PP .RS \fBNote: .PP \fIBe Careful!\fP The event filter function may run in a different thread so be careful what you do within it\&. .RE .SH "SEE ALSO" .PP \fI\fBSDL_Event\fR\fR, \fI\fBSDL_GetEventFilter\fP\fR, \fI\fBSDL_PushEvent\fP\fR ...\" created by instant / docbook-to-man, Tue 11 Sep 2001, 22:59
