I have run a few packages using setup into macports. I have had to edit  
the build
scripts in one case to only compile for one architecture. However I went  
back to a
pure macports and so cannot be certain the compilations worked

The macports python is now a framework and will install to
/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5 so I think  
that setup.py
does work I have installed ipython and appscript and my small use of it  
seems to work
