Oh come on, just let Python 2.3 users install the decimal module from SF: <http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php? group_id=104148&package_id=130611&release_id=291663> I'd also suggest keeping FloatField as it is (i.e. half-broken, depending on DB backend, or fix it to always return floats, but that's break backwards compatibility again), deprecate it, and introduce the new DecimalField. Only the use of DecimalField would require the decimal.py module, same as ImageField requires PIL.
