Summary: SDL 1.3 thread/generic/SDL_systhread.c gives compile error in mingw

Description Jonas Thiem 2011-05-09 07:26:26 UTC 
When compiling SDL 1.3 with MinGW 4.5.0 20100414 (Fedora MinGW 4.5.0-1.fc14) on a Fedora 14 host, there is a conflict in the SDL headers:

cd hg/SDL/src/thread/generic && i686-pc-mingw32-gcc -c *.c -O3 -I/home/jonas/d/avernumclone/sdl1.3/dx80_mgw/ -DSDL_ATOMIC_DISABLED -I/home/jonas/d/avernumclone/sdl1.3/hg/SDL/include
SDL_systhread.c:29:1: error: conflicting types for 'SDL_SYS_CreateThread'
../SDL_systhread.h:35:12: note: previous declaration of 'SDL_SYS_CreateThread' was here

Due to this it is impossible to build SDL 1.3 (all other parts of SDL work flawless without exception).

The hg version is recent as of yesterday.

Apparently src/thread/generic/ shouldn't be build for a windows version.. now it finally works :-) sorry for this invalid bug report.
