That's the downside of living on the bleeding edge, I guess.  ;)

They use "swig" to generate the Python-to-C interface code for calling 
into system DLLs.  That creates a Python extension DLL (.pyd), which 
does have to be linked to a single Python version.  You can certainly 
fetch the source code yourself, using the cvs archive (I just did), but 
you would also need to install "swig".  That's not rocket science, 
either, but it has to be built from source.

Some of their subprojects do have 2.5 installers, so there may be hope 
that someone will upload one for pyAA.
