All I did was completely uninstall and clean everything, then did a 

sudo install py-spyder

It installed (or tried to) all the dependencies it needed, which included the 
python and py27-distribute. Both of those had been installed before the crash 
on p27-opbjc

I don't want to fight a dependency list in order to get py-spyder to work.  The 
current Apple python on this machine is v 2.7.2 and according to its boot info, 
it appears to be Apple build 5493, = Enthought EPD 7.1-2 (32 bit)  I don't 
remember ever installing the Enthought distro on this machine.  Is that the one 
that is supposed to come with Mountain Lion?

Is there an install sequence you'd suggest to get py-spyder working?  The 
reason I like it is that it has a pretty complete set of scientific python 
routines built in, and, unlike the Enthought academic version, isn't restricted 
in extensions.
