Pygame uses Numeric
./src/sndarray.c: PyImport_ImportModule("Numeric");
./src/surfarray.c: PyImport_ImportModule("Numeric");
But I don't see the connection with smpeg.
pygame is certainly using the smpeg library and headers for movie.c. If
pygame builds without smpeg then as fas I can tell freevo should run. I
wouldn't have thought the PyMovie is used anywhere. But I could be wrong.
