Building them on 10.3 is the easiest way to get 10.3 compatible extensions. You'll have to test them on 10.3 anyway, so you may as wel build them there. In theory extension you build on 10.4 will work on 10.3 if you use weak-linking for symbols that don't exist on 10.3 (or just don't use 10.4 specific API's). BTW. You don't have to stay on 10.3, you just have to build all extensions there. You can do all your development in 10.4, py2app will build a 10.3 compatible app bundle on 10.4 if all extensions and Python itself were build on 10.3.
