Weird crash in sdl_init

SDL Development
1

I have found a very weird crash in my project, right in
SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO)
I worked in my project all weekend at home (gentoo, sdl 1.2.10) and now I
find that in 2 different setups I get a segmentation fault: gentoo with
1.2.11 and Centos with 1.2.7.
What reasons can cause a crash in sdl_init?–

Distro’s shipping broken SDL’s!

I would advise trying to remove whatever SDL package comes with your
distro and build SDL from source.–
