That won't get rid of the problem, unless we hack the .la file by
hand. However the next SDL release (which is being packaged) includes a
.pc file for use with pkg-config.
We should get rid of the .la file too, but that will require fixing
reverse dependencies first. Rdeps shipping .la files include:

The SDL team maintains most of these, but a few other maintainers
need to be pinged.
