That's actually my list.  Sorry, I don't run 10.2 or support it 
anymore.  You can try installing all the pygame dependencies from my 
old list, and then compile pygame yourself.  There's not a whole lot of 
difference between pygame 1.5.6 and 1.6 anyways, so that's always an 
option.

I doubt that's your problem.  Either way, it doesn't matter if you're 
careful or not, unless you work for Apple you are never ever supposed 
to touch /usr or /System.

Nope, it's not in any way related (-no-cpp-precomp isn't a linker 
option anyway).
