i think this is the bigger problem. SMPEG hasn't been touched for 
awhile. when i submitted the problem i was told i'd need to provide all 
sorts of debugging traces and compiler info before they'd change 
anything (which basically sounded like "we don't want to deal with it").

sadly fixing the problem only required applying a provided patch, and it 
would only have effected compiling with MSVC, so nobody else would have 
been bothered with it.

if the SMPEG.dll that comes with the pygame binaries or my 
win32-dependencies package is no longer "good", let me know so i can try 
to rebuild the library to a bug-free condition.
