While trying to run 20,000 Light Years in Space, version 1.2 I get 
the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    SDL_SetClipRect(self._surf, rect)
ctypes.ArgumentError: argument 2: exceptions.TypeError: expected 
LP_SDL_Rect instance instead of _RectProxy

Since SDL_SetClipRect has argtypes defined _RectProxy's 
_as_parameter_ is not used. A from_param method will not help here 
either, as it must belong to the type object in the argtypes list, 
not the object passed as an argument.
