Yes, the workaround is RTFWP (uhm... lemme look... Yes, this is
actually described on http://www.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython.html;-). You
should get the special GUSI mentioned on the MacPython webpage to
compile the current sources (or the 1.5.2c1 sources, for that matter,
if you use the current CW compiler).

GUSI 2 doesn't work yet, because there are some fixes Guido should
check in and he's away, and there's also still a few glitches with
runtime support that we haven't figured out yet.
