First off, the versions of SDL etc you installed, did you build your
own frameworks, or did you build them from Terminal using ./configure
and make ?

If you are using frameworks, make sure you have SDL.framework etc in
ONE PLACE ONLY and make sure this is the copy you want to use. I
normally use my Home folders Library/Frameworks/ for this.

Finally, if you use frameworks, they expect all headers to be referred
to by #include <FrameworkName/header.h>, so for SDL this would be
#include <SDL/SDL.h>. The problem with this, is the standard headers
don't adhere to that. The fix is either a) manually adding the path to
the frameworks Headers folder, or b) correcting the headers in the
Framework to follow this.
