This is only relevant when using Apple's version of Python. You'd  
have to make sure that the new version of wx gets picked when you  
import wx instead of the one shipped with Tiger. You'd also have to  
do this without removing or replacing anything in /System, because a  
software update can replace stuff there.

If you use a Python framework and extensions that were compiled on  
Panther the resulting application should run on Panther and Tiger,  
even if you build it in Tiger.
