Actually, you don't strictly need that recent a version --
I've successfully built extension modules for MacPython 2.2
using CodeWarrior Pro 3 -- but you might have to build the
project file by hand. It's not really all that hard.

Another alternative might be MPW. The version of Pyrex I run
at home on my Mac uses the MPW-tool versions of the CodeWarrior
compiler and linker, driven via ToolServer and AppleEvents
from the Pyrex compiler... sounds hairy, but it works!
