I would install the additional automake packages.

I'd still recommend redhat-config packages to make this easier. Start it 
and select the development packages. However with rawhide gcc, it may 
complain. Worth a try at any rate.

No problems to this point, the above output looks normal.

Odd. You're sure you have the SDL packages installed? Does 
/usr/bin/sdl-config exist on your system? Let's see if it exists.
$ ll /usr/bin/sdl-config
- -rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root         1546 Feb 10 11:14 
/usr/bin/sdl-config

Yes, but I don't know what it might be.
/usr/bin/sdl-config should be installed by the SDL-devel package.

I have the following SDL packages installed:
SDL_image-devel-1.2.2-5
SDL-1.2.5-3
SDL_net-1.2.4-5
SDL_image-1.2.2-5
SDL_net-devel-1.2.4-5
SDL-devel-1.2.5-3
SDL_mixer-1.2.4-7
SDL_mixer-devel-1.2.4-7

If you have those packages installed, please verify them:
rpm -qa | grep SDL | xargs rpm -V

Then your halfway there! ;)

Now, if it still fails to build, try:
"rpmbuild -bb tuxracer.spec | tee build.log"
And mail me the full build.log file.
