I am not a SDL developer but the patch looks alright to me.

One more nitpick though, is that I would prefer if you
used enums instead of defines. This way you can avoid
namespace pollution if you include SDL_ttf headers from
a C++ program.

So instead

+/* Set and retrieve FreeType hinter settings */
+#define TTF_HINTING_NORMAL    0
+#define TTF_HINTING_LIGHT     1
+#define TTF_HINTING_MONO      2
+#define TTF_HINTING_NONE      3

it would be nice to use
typedef enum {
	TTF_HINTING_NORMAL,
	TTF_HINTING_LIGHT,
	TTF_HINTING_MONO.
	TTF_HINTING_NONE
} ttf_hinting;

or something like this..
