Have you tried setting up a chroot for compilation?
You can trick the tools into using your SDL instead of
the system ones. Then you can use LD_PRELOAD or
LD_LIBRARY_PATH to beat the system libraries with your
own versions in your runGame scripts. I know it is a
huge hack but if it works... one less problem :-)

Good luck,

Pablo
