Fixed it, with the help of the beginners' list. It turned out to be a
simple environment issue - the makefile expected sdl to be in the same
directory as the stdlib, whereas godi puts it in pkg-lib instead. The
makefile had an undocumented workaround for this:

# ln -s `ocamlfind query sdl` /tmp/SDL/ocamlsdl

after which everything compiled happily.
