Oh, ok ... I was under the impression that SDL_ttf would actually render 
the font, instead of punting to the browser for a "best effort". Thanks for 
explaining that.

What's the bottleneck for integrating SDL2_mixer into emscripten? According 
to the person who made the referenced PR, it's supposed to be ready, so 
assuming that I wanted to help, I wouldn't really know where to start (and 
I think that's probably true for a lot of developers who might want to use 
that particular port).
