I went ahead and tested the patch found on gnome bug #342728, which I've included here. It seems to have fixed the problem. I ran a full screen SDL game, and the screensaver never activated. I ran the same SDL game in a window, and the screensaver activated, but gave me back control when I deactivated the screensaver.

However, it needs more testing, because I created a patched version of Dapper's gnome-screensaver-2.14.2, but the fade feature somehow didn't get enabled. The fading may be part of the issue, so I'm requesting that someone with more experience apply the patch and test the results.

This also appears to have fixed bug #48108.
