In short: no, that is not possible.

Major Python releases (such as 2.5 and 2.6) are not necessarily binary 
compatibel. If you are careful you can get a single binary that works with 2.5 
and 2.6, but you then have to load the framework manually and also manually 
resolve any python API functions you are using.  The easiest way to do that is 
using the CFBundle APIs in CoreFoundation.

It might be easier to create two plugin bundles for your application: one that 
links against 2.6 and one that links against 2.5. You can then load the plugin 
that is most appropriate for the currently running OS version.
