Applets don't wok on 10.1, because it doesn't support #! binaries, and
MacPython applets depend on it. This is also the reason there's no
MacPython distribution for 10.1:-(

Pascal: if 10.1 is important to you and you want to create a workaround:
I'd love to get one, so we could distribute MacPython 2.3.1 for 10.1 
too.

A workaround could simply be teaching bundlebuilder that it would need 
to
install its shell script as "xxxx.sh", and installing a program "xxxx"
that execl()s /bin/sh with argv[0] with ".sh" appended. But it may be 
more
involved than that, I don't know for sure...
