Hi!
You (Matthias) surely didn't really read the docs, did ya?  As SDL supports 
OpenGL, it supports hardware alpha blending, because alpha functions are 
part of the GL-Rendering-Pipe, taking place right before the rasterization 
step.
So, Juhana should probably go use SDL_OPENGL for VideoMode ... Remember to 
set the GL_ATTRIBUTES before calling SDL_SetVideoMode(...);
