The script sounds very useful it would be good to have it accessible somewhere?

Did you build the e.g. OSX 10.7 wheels specifically with the 10.7 SDK?
 Maybe it would have been simpler to build them all with the 10.6 SDK
and Python.org python, then rename them for the OSX / architecture
version?  That's what MinRK is doing for his OSX wheels here:
http://kerbin.bic.berkeley.edu/wheelhouse/

I guess you didn't build against the Python.org or System python -
because there are no '-intel' wheels?

Thanks again,

Matthew
