I was using the following entry in configure.in previous to SDL 1.2.7, once I
upgraded to 1.2.7 this fails now. What chances are needed for 1.2.7?
AC_CHECK_HEADER(SDL_mixer.h,
AC_MSG_ERROR(*** Cannot find the SDL/SDL_mixer.h header
goto http://www.libsdl.org to download or
check with your distibution.
); exit)
The code you show there is for checking for the SDL Mixer, not SDL itself.
So verify that you have the updated SDL Mixer installed, and that it
doesn’t conflict with the installed version of SDL. The code you show
shouldn’t succeed or fail depending on the SDL, but rather on the SDL
Mixer library (and whether it works with the installed version of SDL).
The test for the SDL Mixer should also come after the SDL test and
assigning the proper SDL arguments to CFLAGS and the LIBS.
To check for SDL, use the AM_PATH_SDL macro available in sdl.m4
distributed with the SDL sourcecode… Check the SDL sample programs to
see its usage.
You might also wanna rename configure.in to configure.ac, as some systems
use older Autoconf if you name it configure.in if you have both older and
newer versions of Autoconf installed.

I found the problem I did upgrade SDL_mixer. the configure script failed
because there were two SDL_mixer.h files
/usr/include/SDL/SDL_mixer.h
/usr/local/include/SDL/SDL_mixer.h
deleted the older version and moved the newer to /usr/include/SDL and now
it works fine.
