Thanks for the info. Never tried to compile SDL sources or get it via
Fink or MacPort.
the only purpose, that passdlmain can be usefull, is extending
(customizing) application menu, using pascal, rather than obj-c.

Also, speaking about sdl header. Correct if i'm wrong, but SDL tries
to link XLib and/or X11 library under Darwin, even if these libs are
not to be used?

Thanks,
Dmitry

P.S. I'm going to copy-paste your email to the wiki (about details on
how-to get SDL lib, instead of framework), if you don't mind.
