SDL2 is much improved and somewhat incompatible update to previous versions of SDL.

Supported platforms:
* Windows (XP and later)
* Linux
* Mac OS X

OS/2 and Mac OS 9 support was dropped entirely and other platforms beyond listed above are either not officially supported or supported by third-parties.

Notably SDL2 adds full support for touch interfaces (was mapped to mouse events prior) and multiple displays.
