Does it matter? The other .pyc files will be recreated when they are next 
needed. Just nuke all the .pyc files and be done with it. Or if you can't 
bear having to wait for Python to compile them as needed, you can force 
compilation by running your test suite (you do have a test suite, don't 
you?) or by using the compileall.py script.

python -m compileall some_directory 

should do the trick.
