Current pysdl works just fine with 2.0 (release candidate something), it
needs a recompilation and changed defines for Py_Malloc and PyFree, such
as:

#define Py_Malloc PyMem_Malloc
#define Py_Free   PyMem_Free

This was mentioned a while ago when I asked about 2.0, and I think Pete
told me to do this. Anyway, it works just fine, I've used it quite a lot
the last few weeks, without any problems. Well, problems of course, but
they are related to my silly coding...

Btw, while I'm here, has anybody had any problems with sdl.quit(),
especially when running fullscreen? I usually run my desktop as 1600x1200,
but my game is run fullscreen at 1024x768, and all works fine until the
application is quit. The resolution never changes back to 1600x1200, but
leaves at 1024x768. This is a little bit irritating, as everything else
works fine.
