This change is only relevant for Windows 8, 8.1, and RT apps, and only for those that are network-enabled. Such apps must feature a link to a privacy policy, which must be displayed via the Windows Settings charm. This is needed to pass Windows Store app-certification.
Using SDL_SetHint, along with SDL_HINT_WINRT_PRIVACY_POLICY_URL and optionally SDL_HINT_WINRT_PRIVACY_POLICY_LABEL, will cause SDL/WinRT to create a link inside the Windows Settings charm, as invoked from within an SDL-based app.
Network-enabled Windows Phone apps do not need to set this hint, and should provide some sort of in-app means to display their privacy policy. Microsoft does not appear to provide an OS-integrated means for displaying such on Windows Phone.
The destination target's alpha wasn't getting set correctly in many cases. Among other problems, this prevented some alpha-blended textures from displaying correctly in Windows Phone 8's multitasking screen.
The d3d11 renderer now uses the same blending settings found in the d3d9 renderer.
The projection and view matrices are now computed ahead of time, as they both get computed in the same spot, and typically not often. If this does, however, become a performance problem later on, this change can always be reverted.
Previously, the shaders would get compiled separately, the output of which would need to be packaged into the app. This change should make SDL's dll be the only binary needed to include SDL in a WinRT app.
Due to the new "tap and hold" IME in Mountain Lion and above, we were getting
inconsistent repeat of SDL_TEXTINPUT events. Disabling that functionality (since
you can't see the popover anyway) solves this.
Bug: https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2387
The DualShock 4 has all elements listed twice: once in the top-level list of
elements, and once in an "Application Collection" element at the top-level.
Each element has a proper cookie with a unique value, so now we descend into
each element collections, but before we add an element to the device's list,
we make sure we don't already have one with that cookie, probably from
another collection or a buggy device.

All CPU detection functions SDL_Has* will return false, even if it is supported by the CPU, if SDL is compiled with MSVC and the target is x64.
The reason for this is that 'CPU_haveCPUID' will return 0 and macro 'cpuid' in SDL_cpuinfo.c is the fallback implementation, which sets all params to zero.
It is safe to assume that cpuid is supported on a CPU that runs windows x64, so CPU_haveCPUID can just return 1, and the empty macro can be replaced with a small wrap around the __cpuid intrinsic.

Starting from version 2.0.1 libsdl fails to build on Debian GNU/kFreeBSD in SDL_cpuinfo.c.
GNU/kFreeBSD defines __FreeBSD_kernel__ but not __FreeBSD__.
The #ifdef __FreeBSD__ check should be extended for __FreeBSD_kernel__, see the attached patch.

On OSX, an SDL app forces a system shutdown to be cancelled. This happens because [SDLAppDelegate applicationShouldTerminate] returns NSTerminateCancel. A better approach is to subclass NSApplication and override terminate to do nothing except call SDL_SendQuit. In response to a system shutdown notification, this allows the normal SDL Quit event processing to occur, and if the app then terminates, system shutdown occurs normally. Please see the attached patch, based on SDL 2.0.1.

On OSX, the app name in the menu bar is not localized. This can be fixed using the following implementation for GetApplicationName in SDL_cocoaevents.m:
static NSString *
GetApplicationName(void)
{
NSDictionary *dict;
NSString *appName = 0;
appName = [[NSBundle mainBundle] objectForInfoDictionaryKey:@"CFBundleDisplayName"];
if (!appName)
appName = [[NSBundle mainBundle] objectForInfoDictionaryKey:@"CFBundleName"];
if (![appName length])
appName = [[NSProcessInfo processInfo] processName];
return appName;
}

When building static or shared libraries on cygwin 1.7.25 on Windows 7 (32-bit), I get the following link errors:

The libuuid from e2fsprogs is completely unrelated to the w32api UUID.DLL implib. FWIW, any *NIX software that I've seen obviously wants the e2fsprogs version, but if libuuid-devel is installed (in /usr/lib) then you can't link against the w32api implib with a simple -luuid.
- Use the SDL_AUDIO_MASK_DATATYPE bit when selecting an implementation
where it matters. Previously two existing AUDIO_F32 cases had been
written, but were unreachable.
- Add AUDIO_F32 case for SDL_ConvertSurround_4.
- Fix incorrect pointer arithmetic causing the 2 to 6 channel
conversion for 4 byte audio formats to read and write beyond the end
of the buffer.
