Thanks Dave,

I'm on Debian (Etch), though using my own Perl in /opt. I've got most of the
SDL prereq's installed via apt, except for SDL_vnc and SDL_svg (which
I couldn't find via apt-cache search). SDL_vnc 1.0.0 built and
installed fine from source. SDL_svg 1.1.9 failed, complaining about
missing files like libxml/SAX.h, libxml/xmlmemory.h, and
libxml/hash.h.

Incidentally, I've got libsdl-console and libsdl-console-dev installed
via apt as well (I mention this because, although console isn't
mentioned as a prereq in the SDL_perl README, I see console mentioned
as an issue in the ./Build test output).

The SDL_perl ./Build seemed to go fine, though gave me the following
messages:

SDL/Perl.xs: In function 'XS_SDL__Perl_Sound_AvailableDecoders':
SDL/Perl.xs:4420: warning: ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code
SDL/Perl.xs: In function 'XS_SDL__Perl_Sound_NewSampleFromMem':
SDL/Perl.xs:4461: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without
a cast

./Build test had a few issues and told me this:
