Description: QEMU starting with version 1.5 added a GTK+ GUI interface. Most issues with that interface should be solved in 2.1.
Support for SDL 2 was added in version 2.0. I don't know of any reasons to prefer SDL 1.2.

Steps to reproduce:
% qemu-system-x86_64 -display gtk
GTK support is disabled
% ldd /usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 |grep SDL
libSDL-1.2.so.0 => /usr/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0
This task depends upon

qemu 2.1.1's "configure" script defaults to SDL 1.2 and GTK 2 - are you saying that's an upstream bug?
