that's right. What you are experiencing is an unfortunate
limitation of autoconfig. You have to run configure as

configure --disable-sdl

In case you did the configure from a separate build tree
please remove that first (or at least the 'SDL/' subdirectory).
Else the subsequent 'make' will fail (as it assumes that once
'SDL/' exists, it will find a 'Makefile' there...

Hope that helps,
