I tested with my own compiled Python 2.6.4, which returns:
Python 2.6.4 (r264:75706, Dec 22 2009, 21:55:52)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import platform
>>> platform.mac_ver()
('10.6.2', ('', '', ''), 'i386')
And Apple's Python:
Python 2.6.1 (r261:67515, Jul 7 2009, 23:51:51)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import platform
>>> platform.mac_ver()
('10.6.2', ('', '', ''), 'i386')
Haven't tested with py2app.
