Nice to hear !

gui-win contains only a few files to compile gui-sdl under windows, so 
you can ignore this, there's no SDL code in there.

gui-osx is a version of the gui using xcode and native OSX interface ; 
unless you can compile OSX code yourself, you can leave it, OSX coders 
will update it later if your scaling code prooves to be OK.

So, only gui-sdl should be modified in your case ; it can be compiled 
under linux, windows and osx and should give a correct default UI on all 
platforms.
