Not sure which of the three solutions I mentioned you are referring
to as "this".

If you want to have the script run with both Python 2.3 and 2.4, you
should avoid using features new in 2.4. Alternatively, you can check
for the presence of the feature, and fall back gracefully if the feature
is missing.

Yes. Using different interpreter binaries (i.e. \python23\python.exe
vs. \python24\python.exe) will automatically take care of this.
Each interpreter binary will safely have its own Python path, use its
own dlls, and its own libs.
