yes, this is already fixed in the latest pygame cvs code.
when pygame-1.1 is released it will better handle colormaps for
subsurfaces.

you'd be surprised. things don't always work as i'd plan :]

feel free to upload temporary things like this to the pygame contrib
directory. you can ftp into ftp://pygame.org/pub/pygame/contrib and
anonymously upload the file. it can then be linked over http at
http://pygame.org/ftp/contrib
i clean files out of there every week or so. it's nice to have an
open place to drop things, and i'll leave it that way (as long as the
warez scene doesn't catch wind of anything)
