Edward Rudd b88ca1b4a6 the last parameter of XChangeProperty is the number of elements.. and when the element format is 32.. the element is "long" so we have 5 long elements here.
Yes this seems confusing as on mac+linux Long is either 32 or 64bits depending on the architecture, but this is how the X11 protocol is defined. Thus 5 is the correct value for the nelts here.  Not 5 or 10 depending on the architecture.

More info on the confusion https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16802

CMake
================================================================================
(www.cmake.org)
SDL's build system was traditionally based on autotools. Over time, this
approach has suffered from several issues across the different supported
platforms.
To solve these problems, a new build system based on CMake is under development.
It works in parallel to the legacy system, so users can experiment with it
without complication.
While still experimental, the build system should be usable on the following
platforms:
* FreeBSD
* Linux
* VS.NET 2010
* MinGW and Msys
* OS X with support for XCode
================================================================================
Usage
================================================================================
Assuming the source for SDL is located at ~/sdl
cd ~
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../sdl
This will build the static and dynamic versions of SDL in the ~/build directory.
