[ mp asks what version of Python to install on Mac OSX ]

I just do a Unix build from the Subversion repository.  I do have fink
installed, so some of the external libraries match up there.  Also, the
Mac's readline module is really libedit, which doesn't provide enough
functionality for Python's readline module.  Having fink or Darwin Ports
available is handy for that sort of thing.
