Thanks for providing the binaries! I installed them this morning and everything seems to work fine. However, I wasn't very pleased to see that the installation modifies my ~/.profile to insert /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/ Current/bin at the front of $PATH. I don't expect any software installation to mess around with my ~/.profile, and certainly not without telling me it did so. For me, the command-line edition of MacPython has always lived in / usr/local/bin, which I put on my PATH if I want MacPython to be used. I also have Fink python that some applications require, so I do need to play with $PATH to make everyone happy, and I don't appreciate MacPython making my many-python life even more difficult.
