[pygame] Bug fixes - New Pygame 1.8 DLLs



I have prepared a new SDL.dll and SDL_mixer.dll to address several SDL related bugs. They can be downloaded as a zip file from:

http://www3.telus.net/len_l/pygame

under the prebuilts section.

md5sum:
45ce81085f94c6c8baebaa1f7b973b7e *replacement-1.8-dlls.zip

Closed bugs:
1) Blit to self bug involving non-alpha surfaces.
2) Mixer quit / restart bug.
3) Music bug involving replacing music that is playing.

Open bugs:
1) For pygame.mixer.music and Python files or file like objects, pygame.mixer.quit() will hang after playing an Ogg/Vorbis file. For certain wav files the music will not play and pygame.mixer.music.get_busy() will hang. The interpreter freezes in both cases.
2) F10 key is not properly captured for directx video driver.

Bonus feature:
pygame.mixer.music now plays 16bit plain FLAC files.
