Which SDL are you using?  I downloaded 1.2.14 and built it on b129 with:

  ./configure
  gmake
  gmake clean

Then built testgl.c with:

  gcc testgl.c -DHAVE_OPENGL -I/usr/local/include/SDL -L/usr/local/lib 
-R/usr/local/lib -lSDL -lGL

Running a.out puts up a spinning cube.  This is on a system with NVIDIA 
OpenGL.
