SDL's Cocoa backend uses the CGDisplayMode API to get refresh rate information about a display mode, but CGDisplayModeGetRefreshRate will return 0 on most non-CRT monitors.
The only way I know of to get correct refresh rate information in OS X is via the CoreVideo DisplayLink API.
I have attached a patch which tries to use the CVDisplayLinkGetNominalOutputVideoRefreshPeriod function if CGDisplayModeGetRefreshRate fails, which fixes display mode refresh rate information on the monitors I tested.
The CVDisplayLink API requires linking with the CoreVideo framework, and the patch updates the various build files to do so.

Configuring using "cmake -DSDL_STATIC=1 -DSDL_SHARED=0" generate and error in CMakeLists.txt at line 1334:
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:1334 (install):
install TARGETS given target "SDL2" which does not exist in this directory.
This install rule shouldn't be present when the DLL has been disabled

this patch adds a check to the CMake build script to detect whether the VideoCore API is available.
If it is found, it enables SDL_VIDEO_DRIVER_RPI and will also add the needed include/library directory flags to CMAKE_C_FLAGS so the subsequent check for GLES succeeds in picking up the headers.
Seems to work fine on Raspbian.
I added -Wshadow and then turned it off again because of massive variable shadowing in the blit macros.
Feel free to go through that code and fix these if you want. Just uncomment CheckWarnShadow in configure.in if you want to try this.
