    Subject: SDL x11 video mode selection bug
    
    Hi, I've found an oddity with video mode selection. I recently added a bunch of
    oddball video modes to my XF86Config, to support weird resolutions xine &
    mplayer need if I don't want to beat my cpu up with video scaling.
    
    Since adding them, SDL started picking the biggest video mode it could find
    that matched the height constraint. Getting a narrow vertical strip of
    QuakeForge (I code for the project, so needless to say it's my favorite test)
    in the middle of an 800x480 screen, instead of the 640x480 I asked for
    annoys me tremendously.
    
    So here's a patch that tries a bit harder to get an exact match. I didn't
    touch the XiG section, since I can't test that, but I'd bet a similar patch
    would prevent similar problems there.
