Ismail,
  I have access and could look at doing this, but a question first:

  Is there any specific reason that WinCE port is still using SDL 1.2.6
  rather than the latest 1.2.14?

  Apart from the obvious "We have tested with this before" and "The
  patches only apply cleanly on this version".

  If these are the only reasons and we are updating this anyway, it
  would be useful to look at the latest SDL and see if those patches
  are still required and if so, whether they can be rebased onto
  v1.2.14.
