A new installer is available as  
<http://ftp.cwi.nl/jack/python/mac/newer/MacPython-OSX-2.3rc1plus- 
8.dmg>. It has the pythonw bug fixed, and in addition I've taken out  
the "root disk only" option, replacing it with a warning in the README  
that you should only install on your active system disk. The  
root-disk-only option was causing too many problems.

There's still the problem (also noted here) that the welcome message  
doesn't have a scrollbar. I have no idea how to fix this, so comments  
are welcome. And if someone still has any ideas on how to fix the  
root-disk-only option: the old -6 installer is still available to play  
with, let me know about any bright ideas.
