This should be fixed with the latest subversion.On Sat, Sep 12, 2009 at 6:42 AM, Torsten Giebl wrote:

I’m not seeing this problem myself. Is there a bugzilla entry for it?
Has anyone submitted an actual fix for 1.2?On Sat, Sep 19, 2009 at 3:35 AM, Torsten Giebl wrote:

For SDL 1.3/2 you fixed this problem with Revision 4726, just
by removing the outdated iPodLinux support. Is this an option for SDL 1.2 too ?
You get those errors when compiling SDL 1.2 with
the latest CYGWIN version on Windows, when compiling on Linux
this does not happen.
People had the exact same error with SDL 1.3, but
that is fixed now :

The attached patch for SDL 1.2 fixes the problem.
