I encountered the same problem on two different computers running OS X 
10.2
(previous version of gcc). I switched to OS X 10.3 (gcc 3.3) and the 
problem
didn't disappeared.

I could only fix it by downgrading sdl to an old sdl-1.2.5 (which was 
compiled
with the previous version of gcc under OS X 10.2)

Does anybody knows how to fix this with sdl-1.2.6 ?
