Fixed bug #537 Description From esigra 2008-01-07 16:20:21 (-) [reply] I try to get a clean compile for a project using SDL. But I get warnings from SDL headers when I use -Wold-style-cast. This is especially bad because I plan to build the software with -Werror=old-style-cast when we have switched over to GCC 4.2, which has that option. But this problem can be fixed in the SDL headers. I checked out the SVN version and made some patches. See the attached patch.

The reason these libraries are built outside of the standard XFree86
tree is so that they can be linked as shared object code directly into
SDL without causing any symbol collisions with code in the application.

You can't link static library code into shared libraries on non-x86
Linux platforms.  Since these libraries haven't become standard yet,
we'll just include them directly.

These sources are synchronized with XFree86 4.2.1
