pyc/pyo files are arch-independent. I have no idea whether these bytecode files are backwards- and forwards-compatible, but even if they're not, Python falls back to the py files anyway. The only advantage of using site-packages is that for each python version you have there can be a compiled version of the modules. Cheers, Johannes
