We've said e.g. Windows only supports Python 2.5 or later even when everything else supports Python 2.4. And we have inlineCallbacks which only runs on Python 2.5 or later. Saying "kqueue reactor only works on Python 2.6 and later" seems fine to me.
For completeness: there seem to be 2 packages providing the select.kqueue/epoll interface backported for Python 2.3-2.5: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/select26/0.1a3 http://pypi.python.org/pypi/select_backport/0.2 However, both seem to be based on Python svn at some point in time, and not actively maintained.
