As far as I can see, the only possible shortcoming of the patch is that it 
restores the current behavior with a 2-way fat ppc/i386 build with 10.4u (i.e. 
the way python.org installers are currently built); that is, you would still 
not be able to use "arch" to select PPC-emulation on an Intel machine when a 
10.4 SDK build is installed on a 10.5 or later Intel system.  That's no 
different than what we have today and I don't know of any demand for that 
feature.  There are other fairly easy ways around it, if really necessary.  But 
perhaps I'm overlooking something. On the other hand, I don't see anything 
wrong with going the weak linking route (thanks for the pointer, Martin), 
either, other than the additional effort and complexity.
