Could SDL breathe new life into DJGPP?

I know this has been brought up in the past.
I can also find posts from 2004 to 2013 on
various gaming and DOS forums via Google and
Yahoo about people wanting a DOS port of SDL.

E.g., supposedly all of these now can use SDL:

Allegro
Doom, e.g., SDLDoom, Doom Legacy 1.4x SDL, PrBoom, etc.
EDuke32 (Duke Nukem)
Exult (Ultima)
VICE (C64)
ScummVM
MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator)
MESS (Multi Emulator Super System)
DOSBox
dosemu

I'm sure there are others too.
