Comment(by allencmcbride@…):

 Wow, over 55 people cc'ed now.  I'm betting I'm not the only one who
 didn't realize how dependent they were on libsdl until now.  It seems,
 based on the bugzilla report linked above and on
 [http://lists.libsdl.org/pipermail/sdl-
 libsdl.org/2009-September/072018.html this message] on the SDL mailing
 list, that what we need is a backported bug fix to the 1.2 line, since
 even if 1.3 were released tomorrow, it might not work with applications
 made for 1.2.  I'm still naive on FOSS culture, but should we consider all
 making a small donation to the SDL project to help sponsor such a fix?  If
 half of the people watching this ticket gave three or four dollars, that
 would be around $100.  I don't know if that would make any difference or
 not, but we could ask their devel list.
