SDL 1.2.15 is a minor bug fix release.
http://www.libsdl.org/download-1.2.php

General Notes

• Fixed assembly register clobbering in CPU info routines
• Fixed memory stomp when using stretch blit on large images
• Fixed pixel corruption with overlapping blits
• SDL_JOYSTICK_DEVICE can be a colon separated list of joystick devices
• Disabled MMX blitters since they don't compile on modern compilers

Unix Notes

• Fixed crash in joystick code on newer Linux kernels
• Fixed channel swizzling for ALSA target with 6-channel output
• Use the OpenGL GLX_EXT_swap_control extension if available
• XRandR support is disabled by default because it causes desktop reconfiguring. It can be enabled with the SDL_VIDEO_X11_XRANDR=1 environment variable, or by applying this patch: http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/raw-rev/8ec3036098df

Windows Notes
