What would you want to compile the SDL source code? You can already
download an SDL.DLL from www.libsdl.org, so just use that. You
_will_ have to generate a new .LIB file for Borland C++, though,
just like the FAQ says. I have used SDL and Borland together without
problems. (Unless you plan to use OpenGL, in which case you need to
disable floating point exceptions.)
