That is correct behavior.  The current package is made for Python 2.6, and I 
haven't rebuilt it for 2.7 Lion yet.  It may seem to work, but binary python 
extensions are best left to the version they were built for.

It's been a while since I played with python mapscript, but if you force your 
scripts to use "python2.6" instead of just "python", mapscript should load.  
That could get messy for a large project.

I should be able to get to a MapServer/Lion update very soon.
