ARGH!  Thanks.  That actually turned out not to be the problem, but grabbing
the current libsdl and compiling and installing it from source ended up
pointing me to what WAS the problem.

For some reason, the sdl.m4 file was going to /usr/local/share/aclocal, while
aclocal was apparently only looking in /usr/share/aclocal (holdover from
a long-ago upgrade-from-source of autoconf).  I could have sworn I'd fixed 
this before...

Now I have a much more minor problem - everything builds but the example
player, which complains:

/usr/i386-slackware-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lartsc
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [player_example] Error 1

Even though the library in question appears to be in /opt/kde/lib where the
compiler seems to be looking for it:

bash-2.05# ls -l /opt/kde/lib/*artsc*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root          710 Aug 10 17:44

---------------------------------------------------------------

So close, and yet so far...

Any suggestions how to resolve this last bit?  (The library, encoder_example,
etc all seem to have compiled fine and installed, only the player_example
refuses at the moment...)
