The version with an implicit pattern rule tended to fail if test/
was built in an "out-of-tree" build directory not below test/, for
example:
cd SDL
mkdir _build-test
( cd _build-test; ../test/configure )
make -C _build-test
as a result of the pattern rule first checking for axis.bmp, then for
../test/axis.bmp, then ../test/../test/axis.bmp, and so on until the
maximum path length was reached.
Note that this requires GNU make. The FreeBSD ports file for SDL seems
to use GNU make (gmake) already, so presumably SDL's build system is
already relying on GNU make extensions.

AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIRS is an undocumented, internal version of
AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR that takes a whitespace-separated list, instead of a
single path to add to the list. It also does not automatically treat
the given path as being relative to the $srcdir, unlike the documented
AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR.
Newer versions of autoconf treat the argument to AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIRS
as being literal (they do not expand the shell variable), causing
autoreconf to fail if $srcdir is explicitly specified. The argument to
AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR is checked relative to $srcdir anyway, so there is no
need to specify $srcdir a second time.

See SDL bug #4703. This implements two new hints:
- SDL_APP_NAME
- SDL_SCREENSAVER_INHIBIT_ACTIVITY_NAME
The former is the successor to SDL_HINT_AUDIO_DEVICE_APP_NAME, and acts
as a generic "application name" used both by audio drivers and DBUS
screensaver inhibition. If SDL_AUDIO_DEVICE_APP_NAME is set, it will
still take priority over SDL_APP_NAME.
The second allows the "activity name" used by
org.freedesktop.ScreenSavver's Inhibit method, which are often shown in
the UI as the reason the screensaver (and/or suspend/other
power-managment features) are disabled.
The recent change to make SDL_AUDIODRIVER support comma-separated lists
broke the previous behavior where an SDL_AUDIODRIVER that was empty
behaved the same as if it was not set at all. This old behavior was
necessary to paper over differences in platforms where SDL_setenv may
or may not actually delete the env var if an empty string is specified.
This patch just adds a simple check to ensure SDL_AUDIODRIVER is not
empty before using it, restoring the old interpretation of the empty
var.
Originally, SDL 1.2 used "pulse" as the name for its PulseAudio driver.
While it now supports "pulseaudio" as well for compatibility with SDL
2.0 [1], there are still scripts and distro packages which set
SDL_AUDIODRIVER=pulse [2]. While it's possible to remove this in most
circumstances or replace it with "pulseaudio" or a comma-separated list,
this may still conflict if the environment variable is set globally and
old binary builds of SDL 1.2 (e.g. packaged with older games) are being
used.
To fix this on SDL 2.0, add a hardcoded check for "pulse" as an audio
driver name, and replace it with "pulseaudio". This mimics what SDL 1.2
does (but in reverse). Note that setting driver_attempt{,_len} is safe
here as they're reset correctly based on driver_attempt_end on the next
loop.
