I have also renamed *TEXTUREBLENDMODE* constants to BLENDMODE*. The unix build compiles. The windows renderer still needs to be updated, but I have no windows development machine at hand. Have a look at the x11 renderer for a sample. Vector games now run at 90% both on opengl and directfb in comparison to sdlmame's own opengl renderer. The same applies to raster games. The diff also includes a) Changed XDrawRect to XFillRect in x11 renderer b) A number of changes to fix blending and modulation issues in the directfb renderer.

The latest development version of SDL is available via Subversion.
Subversion allows you to get up-to-the-minute fixes and enhancements;
as a developer works on a source tree, you can use svn to mirror that
source tree instead of waiting for an official release. Please look
at the Subversion website ( http://subversion.tigris.org/ ) for more
information on using svn, where you can also download software for
MacOS, Windows, and Unix systems.

  svn checkout http://svn.libsdl.org/trunk/SDL

If you are building SDL with an IDE, you will need to copy the file
include/SDL_config.h.default to include/SDL_config.h before building.

If you are building SDL via configure, you will need to run autogen.sh
before running configure.

There is a web interface to the subversion repository at:
	http://www.libsdl.org/cgi/viewvc.cgi

There is an RSS feed available at that URL, for those that want to
track commits in real time.
