That is unfortunate.  Perhaps those functions should eventually be
added.

I am surprised.

While I have heard that olpcgames is obsolete, unmaintained, and
replaced by sugargames, there are still activities that use olpcgames,
and there are still features that olpcgames has that sugargames does
not.

You may be able to decide whether to maintain the code in olpcgames by
looking at what activities use it, and checking to see how old the
olpcgames is in each activity.

Judge for yourself whether the changes should be done in olpcgames or
in your activity?  Whatever is most effective, I guess.
