I was looking at the MacPython installer (2.4.1) and it's not clear  
if Xcode is needed.  Other than not being able to build modules from  
C source, I noticed one bit that is installed in the System python  
framework, PantherPythonFix, that has some reference to GCC.  There's  
nothing in the installer to keep it from installing on a system  
without Xcode, but will it run without it, as long as one doesn't  
need to compile C modules?

I ask because I want to package some programs that include built C  
modules, and some Mac users might not want to install Xcode, just use  
prebuilt modules in their Python scripts.
