OpenGL you can just avoid it.
There's a bit of up front learning cost if you're not familiar with these
tools, but the payoff comes quickly and is well worth it.

It's not Pygame strictly, but if you're using Pyopengl w/ Pygame, you can
pass such a tint as a "color" param when drawing a textured Quad in
Pyopengl, without needing to monkey with surfaces at all.

This is tangential to the OP's problem, but last
time I tried to use py2exe, it seemed to insist
on including
code to force import...
Clearly I need someway to manually include certain things, but the
Pypack docs give no indication of how to do this... Is there a way to
force Pypack to import missing things? I don't know, and so I'm back to
futzing with py2exe, for which my .exe is presently looking for
datafiles in a different place than py2exe put them. :-(
