Out of interest, does PyObjC play nicely with wxPython/Tkinter?

A further option, if it hasn't already been suggested, would be to  
call AHRegisterHelpBook directly via ctypes. Just because Python's Mac  
modules have all been deprecated and removed doesn't mean that all of  
the underlying OS X APIs have done the same. Some have (e.g.  
QuickTime, QuickDraw, and anything GUI-related are best avoided) but  
others are still fully supported.

Or, if futzing with ctypes is too much hassle, consider grabbing the  
source for the Carbon.AH extension and repackage it as part of the  
project. This is what I did with Carbon.AE when developing appscript,  
for example.
