Hey, it worked! I now have a universal .mpkg for PyXML. What should I  
do with it?

Yuck. MySQL hasn't released a universal binary; they have separate  
packages for PPC, PPC 64 bit, and x86. I could try building it from  
source, but my guess is that I'd very quickly be in over my head.

Anything else I can do to help?
