Hi,
We had a short discussion on the 2.7-macosx10.5 installer for python 2.7 at the
europython language summit due to the unfortunate problems with IDLE and
Tkinter in that installer: tkinter doesn't work in 64-bit due to being linked
with Tk 8.4 and for some reason IDLE.app doesn't work either

The consensus at the summit was to replace the macosx10.5 installer
(ppc, x86, x86_64) by a macosx10.6 (x86, x86_64) installer for future
releases. That enables linking with Tk 8.5 and that would solve a number
of issues other than being available in 64-bit code.
