Ah, CPS again:-)

I don't want to do this, because the interface is undocumented. 
CPS would also have allowed us to do other nifty things, like 
connecting to the window server without being in a .app 
framework,  but I think relying on undocumented calls is simply 
too dangerous.

At some point in the future there's a good chance Apple will 
take the interface away, and suddenly Python stops working. And 
it will really stop working: you'll get an undefined external 
when you try to start the interpreter.
