Okay, so the problem seems to be that Debian is no longer packaging  
Numeric, and when import Numeric fails in Audio.py, the game crashes.

This is actually patched in Debian (debian/patches/no_numeric_module in sid  
at least), with the patch below.  A better way to fix it though would be to  
put the "import Numeric" in a try/except block, and then fall back to using  
numpy if that doesn't work. e.g. (untested):

{{{
...
if tuple(int(i) for i in pygame.__version__[:5].split('.')) < (1, 9, 0):
   # Must use Numeric instead of numpy, since PyGame 1.7.1 is
   # not compatible with the latter, and 1.8.x isn't either (though it  
claims to be).
   try:
     import Numeric
     def zeros(size):
       return Numeric.zeros(size, typecode='s')   #myfingershurt: typecode s  
= short = int16
   except:
     import numpy
     def zeros(size):
       return numpy.zeros(size, dtype='h')
else:
...
}}}

Attached is the debian patch for reference (basically just commenting out  
some lines)

Now back to playing :D
