Comment (by Simon McVittie):

 Thanks, that change looks good.

 Having the "sdl2 < 3.0.0" maximum version is harmless, but redundant,
 because the plan is that when SDL breaks compatibility, the .pc file will
 be renamed (most likely to sdl3.pc) to make the new library parallel-
 installable with the old one, at which point it won't match a dependency
 on sdl2 any more: so it should be sufficient to only have the minimum
 version, something like

 test_pkg_config sdl2 "sdl2 >= 2.0.1" SDL_events.h SDL_PollEvent
