Hello,

I compiled libSDL-1.2.6 from sources with libaa enabled under GNU. When  
I tried to statically compile a sample program, g++ lacked 3 libraries,  
and I had to add them:  
g++ -static test.cpp `sdl-config --cflags` `sdl-config --static-libs`  
-lX11 -lgpm -lslang

Attached is the sample program.

I unfortunately do not know autoconf well enough to do the change  
myself in sdl-config.–  
Sylvain  
PS: is there a dedicated bug submission form? I sent that mail with the  
"Feedback" link from [libsdl.org](http://libsdl.org), but got no reply 😕
