[PATCH 0/2] gnu: Add sdl-union and guile-sdl

[David Thompson <dthompson2@worcester.edu>]

Hello all,

The following patch set adds two new packages:

1) sdl-union: A union-build of SDL and it's utility libraries
2) guile-sdl: A Guile wrapper for SDL

Neither of these patches are ready for upstream.  I'm posting them now
because I need some help to fix the remaining issues.

Regarding sdl-union:

* This package isn't useful for users, only developers.  Should I keep it
private so that it doesn't show up in package searches?

* I wasn't sure how to fill out the metadata fields.  Thoughts on what
  they should be?

Regarding guile-sdl:

* This package doesn't build.  However, if I build with --keep-failed
and run `make clean && make` in /tmp/nix-.../guile-sdl-0.5.1, the build
is successful.  Does anyone have any thoughts about why this might be?
I really need some help here.

The motivation for these patches (and my previous freeimage) patch, are
to finish up packaging all of the dependencies for Sly, my game engine.

Thanks in advance for the help/feedback!
