Thanks. I see that it* avoids the issue with Tk starting in the 
background that I get with Platypus, too.

In fact, it looks like the bundlebuilder module is adequate for my needs. 
It does put in a version-specific #! line, but if I change that to
#!/usr/bin/env python, the app still works, and it seems to me that it 
will work for any version of Python on OS 10.4, 10.5, and maybe 10.3.

* I still haven't actually tried "it" (py2app), since I realized that I 
already had bundlebuilder, but I'm assuming it's the same in this respect.
