I think there is potentially a slightly different cause of the above problem. During the introduction of the Altivec code, the blit_table struct field 'alpha' got changed from a straightforward enum to a bitmask, which makes perfect sense by itself. However, now the table driven blitter selection code in SDL_CalculateBlitN() can choose the wrong blitters when searching for a NO_ALPHA blitter because of the following code: int a_need = 0; ... (a_need & table[which].alpha) == a_need && When searching through the normal_blit_2[] table, a SET_ALPHA blitter (like Blit_RGB565_ARGB8888) can now be selected instead of a NO_ALPHA one, causing alpha channel bits to appear in a non-alpha destination surface. I suppose this could theoretically be an indirect cause of the segfault mentioned above. I *think* this can be fixed by changing to int a_need = NO_ALPHA;

>Set a callback to run after the specified number of milliseconds has
elapsed. The callback function is passed the current timer interval
and returns the next timer interval.  If the returned value is the
same as the one passed in, the periodic alarm continues, otherwise a
new alarm is scheduled.</P

>The timer callback function may run in a different thread than your
main constant, and so shouldn't call any functions from within itself.</P
><P
>The maximum resolution of this timer is 10 ms, which means that if
you request a 16 ms timer, your callback will run approximately 20 ms
later on an unloaded system.  If you wanted to set a flag signaling
a frame update at 30 frames per second (every 33 ms), you might set a
timer for 30 ms (see example below).</P
