I will, once I'm sure that my changes are actually correct.

BTW. I finally have a working installer at http://pyobjc.sf.net/ 
software/MacPython-2.4.2-1.dmg. I have barely tested this as of yet.

This includes documentation. Annoyingly it is still necessary to  
install Bob's Tiger fixes if you want to build extensions on Tiger.  
The pyconfig.h created on Panther is not compatible with Tiger, I'll  
see if I can find a good and simple solution for that. The easiest  
solution I can think of right now is shipping the Tiger version of  
pyconfig.h in the installer as well and swapping in the right  
pyconfig during installation.

The other half of Bob's Tiger fixes is no longer relevant because the  
Python installer now patches Apple's python at installation time.
