quake4 works fine with libsdl1.2-compat-shim installed. Audio is broken if
you have pipewire-alsa:amd64 but not pipewire-alsa:i386 (#1039012) but
that's not a SDL problem.

etqw is very similar to quake4, and also works fine.

These are binary-only games, so libsdl1.2-compat-dev is irrelevant for this
particular package.
