[pygame] pyGame AND wxPython working on win2k

["Riccardo Trocca" <rtrocca@libero.it>]

This sample I built works on Win2k too.
I'm using the latest stable versions of both pyGame and wxWindows.
I've been able to track down the problem of SDL surfaces popping up in
another window delaying the "import pygame" statement. It seems that on
win2k just importing pygame causes some initialization, preventing the user
to change some parameter like the windowid.
Hope that this can be fixed because the code looks really ugly.
I could not try it on Linux or other platforms therefore I don't know if it
works at all.
