Darn. I guess it's not uncommon that even folks with a 64 bit machine may
need a lib or something that is 32 bit only -- so maybe good to keep it.
But it really is a pain -- and this example is supposed to be part of
Python's stdlib!

Exactly -- will an Intel Universal Python pick up a 64 bit-only wheel?
That would be OK for most folks, I guess, though I'd really prefer it if
things were more clear -- you have a 32/64 bit python, you install wheels
and it works fine for you, so distribute via py2app, then it crashed when
run in 32 bit mode...
Oh well.
