Is it possible to compile Pygame 1.9.2 with SDL 1.3?

Question

In this comment, user "illume" seems to indicate that Pygame 1.9.2 will build with "new SDL". Hoping that "new SDL" meant SDL 1.3, I downloaded, compiled and installed SDL 1.3's source, then downloaded Pygame 1.9.2's source via hg and attempted to install, but I get the error messages detailed here. Am I wrong in my interpretation of illume's comment as indicating that Pygame 1.9.2 will build with SDL 1.3, or is there something I can do to make this work?

Answer 1

I see no mention of SDL 1.3/2.0 there. "new SDL" might be referring to the 1.2.15 release in January.

Among other things they removed the CD-ROM API in SDL 2.0. You can see evidence of that at the bottom of your gist.

You'll have to remove or stub out that functionality in pygame.
