Not being one to jump before I look, I'm waiting on various issues

most appropriate for going forward.

Specific to this list, I will be putting up Bob's MacPython 2.4.1
afterwards.  Relative to such, am I correct in believing I will also
need TclTkAqua, but will not need any of Jack's setups for 10.3 or
Bob's TigerPython23Compat.pkg.zip?  I know I will need to reinstall
other 2.4 packages.

You do not need TclTkAqua, because Tiger ships with it and the _tkinter in Python 2.4.1 will find it in /System/Library/Frameworks after failing to find it in the expected /Library/Frameworks. If you want to develop standalone applications that are compatible with Panther, you will need to install TclTkAqua, because py2app won't embed anything that Apple shipped with your OS.

You will want TigerPython24Fix if you plan on building any extensions yourself, because Python 2.4 as configured with GCC 3.x has some GCC 4 incompatibilities, and that package will patch up the header so that GCC 4 will work.
