On the G3 install a SDL app under debian unstable and confirm it crashes 
as described in the bug report.
On the G4 under debian unstable download the debian source for libsdl1.2 
(using apt-get source), apply the patch I attatched to my previous mail 
and build the packages ( with dpkg-buildpackage ), please use a tool 
like "script" to log the output of the build so that if things fail we 
can investigate further.
Install the packages built on the G4 on the G3 and confirm whether the 
crash is fixed.
