Well that was it!  Here's what happened:

The python executable (in the application bundle used to run GUI 
scripts) used to be lowercase
It was renamed Python to meet Apple guidelines
The she-bang lines for the GUI scripts were not also changed because 
worked on HFS and nobody noticed (HFS is not case sensitive)
