Sorry, make that bug fixed in Revision 1530.
As for the run_test.py -s option, that appears to be a Python 2.6 bug concerning environment variable passing. The following program crashes with the error popup dialog "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0150004)":
import subprocess
command = '''python -c "import os; print 'YAHOO=%s' % os.environ['YAHOO']"'''
subprocess.Popen(command, env={"YAHOO": "ABCDE"}).wait()
I will submit a bug report to the Python issue tracker. Otherwise things look promising with Python 2.6. surfarray and sndarray remain untest as there is not numpy support for 2.6 yet.

Pygame is linked to msvcr90.dll for Python 2.6. So data mixing shouldn't be the problem. Also, other transform tests pass. Just test_threshold__uneven_colors page faults. I have been playing with surf_threshold in transform.c. I find removing all calls to SDL_MapRGBA, even those not actually executed by the unit test, stops the page faults. I am at a loss right now. The only other Python 2.6 problem I found is with the run_tests.py subprocess option. Python 2.6 doesn't like running itself as a subprocess. It is probably not worth delaying the 1.8.1 release over. If I figure this out then I can make the Python 2.6 Pygame binary available then.

Maybe it is because it's using malloc and free in there?
It shouldn't mess with things... because that data is never mixed with
python memory... but maybe that's it.
That's my only guess at the moment.
