Having the SDL functions inline is causing build issues, and in the case of malloc(), etc. causing malloc/free mismatches, if the application build environment differs from the SDL build environment.
In the interest of safety and consistency, the functions will always be in the SDL library and will only be redirected to the C library there, if they are available.
See the following threads on the SDL mailing list for the gruesome details:
* SDL_stdinc.h inlines problematic when application not compiled in exact same feature environment
* Error compiling program against SDL2 with -std=c++11 g++ flag
This broke Steam's Big Picture game controller support.
I also added some more documentation so people know why main() is overridden on various platforms.

SDL_Keysym contains a deprecated field for unicode which may be removed for SDL 2.0 release.
As far as I can tell the field is not set on all "major" platforms and therefore will not be useful for most users. Its existence in a public header therefore becomes (in my opinion) only confusing.
This will help reduce issues like that reported in bug 1819:

This changes makes it so that you only receive joystick (and implicitly
gamecontroller) input events when your application has keyboard focus.
If you'd like to still receive events when your application is in the
background, set the SDL_JOYSTICK_ALLOW_BACKGROUND_EVENTS hint to "1".

The array returned by SDL_GetKeyboardState is also used internally by SDL to keep track of pressed/released keys and must not be modified, lest weird behaviour occurs. Because of this I believe it's return type should be changed to return a const pointer, which will provide a code indication of that fact.
This resolves lots of confusion around resizable windows. Most people don't expect a viewport to be implicitly set when the renderer is created and then not to be reset to the window size if the window is resized.
Added common test command line parameters --logical WxH and --scale N to test the render logical size and scaling APIs.
The visibility attribute warnings in Haiku gl.h can be fixed by editing gl.h and changing the line:
#elif defined(__GNUC__) || (defined(__SUNPRO_C) && (__SUNPRO_C >= 0x590))
to
#elif (defined(__GNUC__) && __GNUC__ >= 4) || (defined(__SUNPRO_C) && (__SUNPRO_C >= 0x590))
as described in: http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/8882

The state bitmask in SDL_MouseMotionEvent is stored in an Uint8. Unfortunately this doesn't actually have room for 8 buttons because SDL skips 4 button indices after the third mouse button (at least here on Linux x86-64, probably related to wheel handling?), so it's really just enough to track 4 buttons. For example, on a Logitech MX310 mouse I've got, even though the mouse has 6 buttons total, the left and right side buttons and extra middle button have indexes 8, 9 and 10, and the last two won't fit in the 8 bit button state.
The source of the button state (in SDL_Mouse) is already 32-bit, and the state field in SDL_MouseMotionEvent is 32-bit aligned and followed by three 8-bit padding fields. So simply changing the SDL_MouseMotionEvent state to an Uint32 and removing the padding fields fixes this, and I think it should be binary compatible, at least for little endian.
Fixes compiler warnings for things like this...
if (SDL_RectEmpty(&rect)) {}
...where the macro turned into "if ( (!(&rect)) && etc )" which some compilers
thought might be a programmer mistake, as "&rect" is always "true".

SDL_touch.h:63:1: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype [-Wstrict-prototypes]
Is:
extern DECLSPEC int SDLCALL SDL_GetNumTouchDevices();
Should be:
extern DECLSPEC int SDLCALL SDL_GetNumTouchDevices(void);
