HI srezic,
We have been working hard for FreeBSD + SDL Perl. Can you give this
tarball a shot?
http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/tarball/8f744c98e5453129862d2505d53fc4ef0a480398
Still no success with SDL-2.3_2. And I did some research and it looks
like you cannot do much about it.
Still core dumps are produced because of a "bad system call" error:
Program terminated with signal 12, Bad system call.

Here's a thread which shows a similar problem:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-threads/2009-August/004587.html
The suggestion is too recompile the FreeBSD kernel with the following
turned on:
options P1003_1B_SEMAPHORES
Here's another thread about the issue:
http://unix.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/FreeBSD/current/2006-02/msg00385.html
Maybe the issue was already solved in the latest stable FreeBSD
release
(7.2). I am still at 7.0 and won't upgrade for the next time and don't
have plans to recompile my kernel.
So I can still continue smoking SDL without any chance for success,
or I
can put SDL into my skip list until I upgrade to the next FreeBSD
version. Whatever you prefer.
I have uploaded sdl 2.3_3 which skips these tests unless SDL_BSD_TEST
is turned on for manual testing. Please continue smoke testing as it
will help us catch othe freebsd bugs or gripes
Regards,
Slaven
thank you,
