Unfortunately, this doesn't build here:

checking for MODPLUG... configure: error: The pkg-config script could not be found or is too old.  Make sure it
is in your PATH or set the PKG_CONFIG environment variable to the full
path to pkg-config.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables MODPLUG_CFLAGS
and MODPLUG_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

To get pkg-config, see <http://pkg-config.freedesktop.org/>.
See `config.log' for more details.
make: *** [/home/thomas/projets/buildroot/output/build/sdl_mixer-1.2.12/.stamp_configured] Erreur 1

Seems like there is a missing dependency on host-pkgconf. The failing
defconfig was:

BR2_arm=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CUSTOM=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_DOWNLOAD=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_URL="http://autobuild.buildroot.org/toolchains/tarballs/br-arm-full-2014.08.tar.bz2"
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_HEADERS_3_16=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LARGEFILE=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INET_IPV6=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LOCALE=y
# BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_HAS_THREADS_DEBUG is not set
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INET_RPC=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CXX=y
BR2_INIT_NONE=y
BR2_SYSTEM_BIN_SH_NONE=y
# BR2_PACKAGE_BUSYBOX is not set
BR2_PACKAGE_SDL=y
BR2_PACKAGE_SDL_MIXER=y
BR2_PACKAGE_LIBMODPLUG=y
# BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_TAR is not set

However, since you're patching configure.in, the sdl-mixer package
should have SDL_MIXER_AUTORECONF = YES. But when I add this, I get:

configure.in:569: warning: macro 'AM_PATH_SMPEG' not found in library
configure.in:570: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PATH_SMPEG
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.

Can you look into these issues and resend? In the mean time, I've
marked your patch as "Changes Requested".

Best regards,

Thomas
