Public bug reported:

Disabling SDL support may have its reasons, but I guess that means I may
be the only one using the virglrenderer library, because it has problems
running with the GTK frontend.

I've been emulating an Android 9.0 device since Eoan, and it took me
some time to understand Qemu's GTK frontend and virglrenderer were
interacting badly. That may very well be a problem with virglrenderer,
not Qemu, but still, using SDL is a good way around it.

Currently it doesn't change anything for me as I have to rebuild to
insert a personal patch anyway, but I thought it may be worth
mentioning, since people may experience problems with virglrenderer they
don't know how to solve.
