But luckily the situation is explained on a mailinglist:

http://lists.apple.com/archives/Carbon-dev/2007/Jun/msg00260.html

The summary: no 64-bit Carbon GUI libraries. I haven't even tried to  
compile Python's Carbon wrapper in 64-bit mode, I'd be surprised if  
they compiled cleanly because Apple has done some serious spring- 
cleaning in 64-bit mode.
