If you go to .../tools/ioemu and type "grep CONFIG_SDL config-host.mak",
what does it say?

I'm running changeset 10470 (or so - I've got some local changes I'm
working on committed to my local repo - so exact number may be off by
one or two in some direction) at the moment, and it works just fine for
me... 

Of course, I'm using SuSE 9.3 to build, but I doubt that makes any big
difference...

That looks fine to me... I get those error messages too - it's just BIOS
calls that are unsupported and it seems like the code performing the
call is happy anyways... You're trying to boot a Linux, right?
