Martin, here's a third patch, "try 3", which does a runtime version check instead of compile-time. It's a bit complex, compared to "try 2", which did a compile-time check instead. I do NOT think this extra complexity is worth it to support Pythons that are built on 10.5+ and running on Mac OS 10.4 and older. 10.4 is long obsolete. I propose merging "try 2" with the compile-time check. If that patch is accepted, I'll submit a patch for Python 2.7 also. Thank you!
