This check in updates SDL_atomic.h to reflect the new set of atomic operations in 32 and 64 bit form. It also update configure.in to compile the linux version of the library. The three versions are all dummies implementations that do nothing. They are being checked in as place holders. Mostly, I just wanted to get place holders and the configure.in checked in.

.SH "NAME"
SDL_ListModes \- Returns a pointer to an array of available screen dimensions for the given format and video flags
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBSDL_Rect **\fBSDL_ListModes\fP\fR(\fBSDL_PixelFormat *format, Uint32 flags\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Return a pointer to an array of available screen dimensions for the given format and video flags, sorted largest to smallest\&. Returns \fBNULL\fP if there are no dimensions available for a particular format, or \fB-1\fR if any dimension is okay for the given format\&.
.PP
If \fBformat\fR is \fBNULL\fP, the mode list will be for the format returned by \fISDL_GetVideoInfo()\fR->\fBvfmt\fR\&. The \fBflag\fR parameter is an OR\&'d combination of \fIsurface\fR flags\&. The flags are the same as those used \fI\fBSDL_SetVideoMode\fP\fR and they play a strong role in deciding what modes are valid\&. For instance, if you pass \fBSDL_HWSURFACE\fP as a flag only modes that support hardware video surfaces will be returned\&.
