AVX is the successor to SSE* and is fairly widely available. As such, it really ought to be detectable.
This functionality ought to be trivial to implement, and not having it means being forced to write an ugly workaround to check for AVX (so that normal SSE can be used if AVX is not available).
Here is an example on detecting AVX from SO (it actually shows ways to cehck for all of teh fancy instructions):

The reasoning behind this change is that source2 in -tools mode has a single OpenGL context that is used with multiple different windows. Some of those windows are created outside the engine (i.e. with Qt) and therefore we need to use SDL_CreateWindowFrom() to get an SDL_Window for those. The requirement for sharing an OpenGL context across multiple different windows is that each window has the same pixel format. To facilitate this, I now set SDL_HINT_VIDEO_WINDOW_SHARE_PIXEL_FORMAT for the main window before calling SDL_CreateWindowFrom(). When I do this, SDL_CreateWindowFrom() will:
1. Set the pixel format of the returned window to the same pixel format as this SDL_Window passed in with the hint
2. The flag SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL will be set on the new window so it can be used for OpenGL rendering.
I only currently implemented this for Win32/WGL so implementing it for other platforms (i.e. X11) remains a TODO.

Some pseudocode that shows how this is used in Source2:
HWND hExternalHwnd; // HWND that was established outside of SDL
// Create main window (happens inside platwindow.cpp)
SDL_Window *mainWindow = SDL_CreateWindow( , SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL .. );
// Create GL context, happens inside rendersystemgl
SDL_GLContext onlyContext = SDL_GL_CreateContext( mainWindow );
// Now I need to create another window from hEternalHwnd for my swap chain that will have the same pixel format as mainWindow, so set the hint
SDL_SetHint( SDL_HINT_VIDEO_WINDOW_SHARE_PIXEL_FORMAT, CFmtStr( %p, mainWindow) );
// Create the secondary window. This returned window will have SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL set and share a pixel format with mainWindow from the hint
SDL_Window *secondaryWindow = SDL_CreateWindowFrom( hExternalHwnd );
// To render to the main window:
SDL_GL_MakeCurrent( mainWindow, onlyContext );
// Do some rendering to main window
// To render to the secondary window:
SDL_GLMakeCurrent( secondaryWindow, onlyContext );
// Do some rendering to secondary window
SDL 2.x recently accepted patches to enable OpenGL ES 2 support via Google's ANGLE library. The thought is to try to eventually merge SDL/WinRT's OpenGL code with SDL-official's.
To enable this, set the environment variable SDL_MOUSE_RELATIVE_MODE_WARP to "1"
When mouse relative mode is disabled, put the cursor back where the application expects it to be, instead of where it was when relative mode was enabled.
Based on the original port to Wayland by: Joel Teichroeb, Benjamin Franzke, Scott Moreau, et al.
Additional changes in this commit, done by me:
* Wayland uses the common EGL framework
* EGL can now create a desktop OpenGL context
* testgl2 loads GL functions dynamically, no need to link to libGL anymore
* Assorted fixes to the Wayland backend
Tested on the Weston Compositor (v1.0.5) that ships with Ubuntu 13.10,
running Weston under X. Tests ran: testrendercopyex (all backends), testgl2, testgles2,testintersections
SDL_GameControllerAddMappingsFromFile is now a convenience macro.
controllermap can now skip bindings by pressing space or clicking/touching the
screen.
Haiku uses most of the standard pthread API, with a few #ifdefs where we
still need to fallback onto the old BeOS APIs.
BeOS, however, does not support pthreads (or maybe doesn't support it well),
so I'm unplugging support for the platform with this changeset. Be Inc went
out of business in 2001.
This bumps the build SDK level to 12 (up from 10). Runtime requirements remain
the same (at API level < 12 joystick support is disabled).
Also enables building SDL for armv7 and x86.
A port of the ANGLE library (OpenGL ES 2.0 for Direct3D) to WinRT, via https://github.com/stammen/angleproject, is used as a base.
To enable, clone 'angleproject' into the directory one above where SDL/WinRT is, open the file SDL/include/SDL_config_winrt.h, and uncomment the #defines that begin with 'SDL_VIDEO_OPENGL'. From there, apps can create an OpenGL capable SDL_Window via the flag, SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL, and an OpenGL ES 2 context via SDL_GL_CreateContext. The Direct3D 11.1 renderer cannot be used alongside SDL_WINDOW_OPENGL. Only Windows 8/8.1 is supported for now. Shaders may need to be precompiled, in some (all?) cases.
To enable the Debug Layer, set the hint, SDL_HINT_RENDER_DIRECT3D11_DEBUG to '1'.
The Debug Layer will be turned off by default, both in Release and Debug builds (of SDL).

Reopening as compilation with ANSI C throws lots of unnecessary warnings, both using MinGW and using Linux GCC. (BTW, what happened? MinGW is broken to all hell. sdl2-config does not even link SDLMain anymore?)
I think this may have been lost somewhere, so again: GCC supports inlining via __inline__ in all known versions of GCC, regardless of the C standard in use. Please don't assume that __STRICT_ANSI__ implies no inlining support.

The problem in question is caused by changeset 7771 (http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL/rev/5486e579872e / https://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2121)
The redefinition of __inline__ (introduced by the addition of begin_code.h:128's "|| __STRICT_ANSI__") results in mingw's gcc throwing multiple
warning: always_inline function might not be inlinable [-Wattributes]
as well as a whole bunch of redefinitions of mingw internals which break linking of projects including the SDL2 headers.

Fixes the version check for some functions that are only present with the MSVC 2013 CRT libraries.
I did my testing wrong and failed to see that 2012 doesn't have these functions. Microsoft implemented them in their upcoming 2013 version, though. The attached patch changes it to the check for the next version.
I also removed the HAVE_ITOA because that would require linking with oldnames.lib and it's easier to just let the SDL implementation take over.
