Ah, didn't know that.

Well, IMHO the code snippet is valid SDL. And even if that's not the 
case: a segmentation fault is in no way a good idea to treat syntax 
errors (Debugging POV SDL would be much more interesting if all syntax 
errors were treated that way :). And about the program being too old to 
handle it - 3.6.1 too old? POV 4 came faster than I thought ;)
