its a custom piece of code that paultag is working on.  the core of the
problem is that the use of

  #include <SDL_Pango.h>

will produce an error that says unable to find SDL.h since it is located
in /usr/include/SDL /rather than /usr/include. however, use of

  #include <SDL/SDL_Pango.h>

only works if the headers are moved to the SDL directory.  i don't see
any reverse depends for libsdl-pango-dev at this point ('apt-cache
showpkg libsdl-pango-dev'), so perhaps that is why no one else has run
into the problem.
