sdl_check_compile.lua

	This file provides various utility functions which allow the meta-build
	system to perform more complex dependency checking than premake initially
	allows. This is done using the (currently) GCC toolchain to build generated
	C files which try to import certain headers, link to certain functions, link
	to certain libraries, or a combination of the above. It supports providing a
	custom source to try and build, link, and/or run per the implementation's
	choice, so the possibilities are nearly endless with that this system is
	capable of, though it could always do with more flexibility.
