Like the message says you are trying to use the svgalib target on
the svgalib wrapper.

The svgalib target lets you run LibGGI applications on top of svgalib.
The svgalib wrapper lets you run svgalob applications on top of LibGGI.
Combining them obviously won't work very well. If you want to use the
SVGAlib target you have to use a real SVGAlib.
