That was approximately my line of reasoning:-)

At the moment I'm investigating using MrC (which is freely
downloadable from the apple developers site). Compilation was little
problem, but I ran into a problem linking. The Apple development group
was *very* speedy in replying to my message, but it'll be sometime
next week before I get another chance to look at this.

Oh yeah, in the mean time I do have a tip for anyone who compiles
Python him/herself: add libmoto before the standard metrowerks
libraries. The speedup (according to Pystone) is a few percent, but
since it's so little work it's worth it...
