I think -Dmain=SDL_main was added to the SDL CFLAGS because
the SDL implementation needs some special startup code.
Redefining main (or directly using the correct name) is typical
for windows gui applications.

-Umain would destroy this mechanism and create an executable
which won't run in the worst case.

By the way, I just tested the cross compiled i386/qemu.exe
(with my patch) using wine on debian lenny: it works :-)
