The attached patch adds support for KMS/DRM context graphics.
It builds with no problem on X86_64 GNU/Linux systems, provided the needed libraries are present, and on ARM GNU/Linux systems that have KMS/DRM support and a GLES2 implementation.
Tested on Raspberry Pi: KMS/DRM is what the Raspberry Pi will use as default in the near future, once the propietary DispmanX API by Broadcom is overtaken by open graphics stack, it's possible to boot current Raspbian system in KMS mode by adding "dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d" to config.txt on Raspbian's boot partition.
X86 systems use KMS right away in every current GNU/Linux system.
Simple build instructions:
$./autogen.sh
$./configure --enable-video-kmsdrm
$make

This patch is wrong: the structure in question has nothing to do with any
gcc version in use. I suggest reverting this adding a conigury check for
it, instead. Something like the following should do it: (configure needs
regenerating.)

I'm going to reopen this because configure should still accurately report whether libudev will be used. Right now it just tests whether it's enabled as an argument, not whether configure was successful in finding it.

SDL2 on Haiku so far uses Haiku-specific APIs for loading dynamic objects as add-ons, instead of using dlopen to load them as libraries. This, for example, leads to SDL_mixer not being able to load its audio backends, when compiled with standard settings.
As discussed at https://www.freelists.org/post/haikuports/SDL2-mixer-ogg-music-not-playing-and-other-stuff,2 , the best way to deal with this would be using dlopen instead of load_add_on. The following patch implements this change by dropping the Haiku-specific bits and using dlopen instead.

Just moved ibus direct call to SDL_IME_* related functions, and adds fcitx IME support (uses DBus, too),
enable with env: SDL_IM_MODULE=fcitx (ibus still the default one)
Generate the C protocol files from the protocol XML files installed by
wayland-protocols, and use them to implement support for relative pointer
motions and pointer locking.
Note that at the time, the protocol is unstable and may change in the future.
Any future breaking changes will, however, fail gracefully and result in no
regressions compared to before this patch.
Since we are loading shared objects dynamically, build our own version of the
core protocol symbols, so that we in the future can include protocol
extensions.
The internal function SDL_EGL_LoadLibrary() did not delete and remove a mostly
uninitialized data structure if loading the library first failed. A later try to
use EGL then skipped initialization and assumed it was previously successful
because the data structure now already existed. This led to at least one crash
in the internal function SDL_EGL_ChooseConfig() because a NULL pointer was
dereferenced to make a call to eglBindAPI().
