SDL absolutley supports full alpha channel.. Assuming the PNG image
was properly done. The SDL client doesn't actually lock any of the
image surfaces but the SDL library itself does. So you either hit a
bug in the SDL library or your image is messed up which is causing 
SDL to barf on it..  You might want to try running the client 
with the SDL_DEBUG environment variable set to 1. Dunno if that
will help or not. 
Feel free to send me the files necessary for me to reproduce this
and I'll look at it.
