Discussion
Turned out that the BasicSprite.py code existed both in the codebase,
and in a subdir in the examples directory. Both were modified to fix the
bug.
For consistency, the messages passed/understood were changed from
"pause" terminology to match the new "freeze" terminology too - so
SimpleGame.py needed modification too.
