The patch also changes SDL_LoadDollarTemplates() to return -1 instead of 0 if src == NULL. Although it may make more sense this it could break existing programs.

Marking a large number of bugs with the "triage-2.0.4" keyword at once. Sorry if you got a lot of email from this. This is to help me sort through some bugs in regards to a 2.0.4 release. We may or may not fix this bug for 2.0.4, though!
Comment 3 Ryan C. Gordon 2015-04-05 22:45:31 UTC 
This patch (with the one "return 0" restored) is now http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/2d6ec08030a0, thanks!
