Bob,

Of course that makes sense. One runs each setup.py with the python  
version intended to install the package under. Apologies to Ronald-- 
not that I thought he did anything incorrectly, I was just assuming  
he might have done something to protect us. What do you know, I learn  
something new every single day.

In fact I have my 2.5 and 2.4 side-by-side so to speak and working  
quite independently it seems now that I look at it.
