The problem is that config.guess, last modified 2009-09-18, has failed to recognize the operating system you are using. It is advised that you download the most up to date version of the config scripts from
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD and http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.sub;hb=HEAD You're trying to build a piece of software that was released on 2013-08-17 using a config.guess from 2009, both of which predate aarch64 being actually available. There's a perfectly good recipe for libsdl in oe-core, or if you insist on building it on-target then you can either follow the instructions or install the gnu-config package into your image and copy the config.* files from /usr/share/gnu-config/.
