As far as friends scaring you off.. I dunno, maybe they didn't know what they were doing when they tried it, or they were bitten by some problem that has been solved long since. The only "incompatibility" with framework builds is that stupid extensions that don't use distutils in their build procedure aren't going to work out of the box, but they're probably not going to work out of the box anyway because Mac OS X's linker takes different options.

On a slightly related note, can I add third-party python modules to the framework using the standard Unix install process. For example, I'm using to installing Python modules on Linux using:
python setup.py install
or occasionally ./configure;make;make install
I've installed your python2.4.1 on Tiger and the fix (just yesterday so I think I got the updated fix).
I've installed a number of the packages your or someone else already built (Numeric, PyOpenGL, etc.), but what do I do if I want a module someone hasn't built.
