It looks like this shouldn't be necessary. It should be getting defined
in the SDL header SDL_config.h. Is there something happening in Fedora's
build of SDL that these defines aren't set in the headers? The one in my
file is at line 280. The SDL_config gets included to every SDL header
file through the SDL_stdinc.h.

It doesn't look like external programs should need to rely on this
internal SDL define.
