[SDL] 1.2.8 -> 1.2.11 Upgrade

Hello !

Did you also recompile your app with SDL 1.2.11 ?
If not, maybe test this too.

When you know that you will only have 8bpp available,
then you should use your own palettes with it.

Even if the new SDL code may be broken,
with using palettes you will be sure
that the app looks the way you want.
