They're both getting Python "magic number" errors, which from what I know result from one Python version trying to run a .pyc file created with another Python version, but I'm not sure exactly how to work around it in the context of the stand-alone package. The students aren't planning to do much in the structural realm outside the course, and I don't want to have to go through installing Xcode and Fink to compile on their own, since they probably won't need it much past this one assignment.
Usually python will regenerate pyc files as needed (assuming the source files are available). So "find $COOTDIR -name "*.pyc" -exec rm {} \;" might be worth a try.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
