Is that the exact script you got from py2applet? All that 
objc.loadbundle etc should not be required.

Did you try the very simplest setup.py first? A tk app should just built 
automagically.

what python are you using? if you are using the Framework build from 
python.org, then it should all "just work". If you are using the Apple 
supplied python, then py2app will not include python itself.
