Sorry, my mistake. SDL does use the pthreads library by default.
So please try to add the following ./configure option to your
src/sdl.mk (_not_ src/sdl_mixer.mk!):

    --disable-pthread-sem

Then build the libraries again ("make" or "make sdl_mixer etc.")
and rebuild your application.

If that still doesn't work, please replace "--disable-pthread-sem" with:

    --disable-pthreads

It would be very interesting for me to see whether one of these
changes work for you.

BTW, I just had to disable DirectX support for SDL for some reason
in the current mingw-cross-env development version. I hope this
won't affect your tests. When in doubt, please try both the current
development version and the latest release.


Greets,
