+By default SDL will only link against glibc, the rest of the features will be
+enabled dynamically at runtime depending on the available features on the target
+system. So, for example if you built SDL with Xinerama support and the target
+system does not have the Xinerama libraries installed, it will be disabled
+at runtime, and you won't get a missing library error, at least with the
+default configuration parameters.
