It works for me (OSX 10.5 intel):

Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 22 2008, 07:57:53)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5363)] on darwin
from appscript import k, app
se = app('System Events')
se
app(u'/System/Library/CoreServices/System Events.app')
se.processes()
[app(u'/System/Library/CoreServices/System  
Events.app').application_processes[u'loginwindow'], app(u'/System/ 
Library/CoreServices/System  
Events.app').application_processes[u'Folder ...



I first thought System Events might be a scripting addition (osax):
