Or maybe just (as I do in all my code):
structure Real32 = Real
:)
The CompatibilityLayer project of this page tries to smoothe out
some compiler differences between MLKit, MLton and SML/NJ
in general - but I haven't tried it with the latest MLton:
http://www.hardcoreprocessing.com/pro/smlcode/index.html
It also does this for Real32.

As for the SDL library... this is something I cannot promise any kind
of date for right now :(
It is "almost ready for a release" - but there are still
changes for my perfectionism that I would like to make, and I would
prefer not to get the "imperfect" version out in the big world ;)
At any rate, it will still not be a "complete" API - only adequate
for many uses (and a lot prettier than the current release).

Thanks :)
