I wish I had thought about the Mailing List last week when I devoted all my time to resolve the same SDL issue that you may be having.
I could not even compile AVIFile without resolving the SDL issue first. My findings were: After checking the config.log file for the package failing to compile I was able to understand the problem. I was puzzled that SDL compiled without any problems but other packages would not compile. As far as I could tell all the variables and libs were in the correct places for SDL. The package I was attempting to compile was SMPEG. The config.log revealed that there was a reference for the SDL "LIBS" to the artsd "LIBS". Wow I thought! how can this be an issue when I have sound working no problem. For whatever reason the artsd libs were in /opt/kde/lib I think and as soon as I moved a copy to /usr/local/lib the SDL "LIBS" found them and I was able to compile all my applications that used SDL in some way or another. I hope this helps!
