I think it would've taken a lot less time to compile some version (any

I'd beg to differ.

Pygame 1.7 had a lot of dependencies which was a real pain in the
backside to compile. Pango and Cairo pops up to mind, but these are
only a few. I think I struggled for about 5 straight hours before
throwing the Gnome/GTK/whatever-deps out and finally fallbacked to an
earlier binary version.
