I agree the changes should still work with Python 2.3. 

My main question about OS X is:

csnd.so will dynamically link with csoundXX.so.5.1
_csnd.pyd will load csnd.so as a module

Or whatever they are actually called. This works on Windows and certainly should work on Linux. Will it work on OS X? I presume so but I do not know. "Dynamically link" means that the shared library is linked at compile time, which causes the OS to load and bind the shared library at run time. "Load as a module" means that the shared library is NOT linked at compile time, rather the PROGRAM (which can of course be another shared library) loads and binds the shared library at run time. 

Does this cause a problem with respect to bundles and shared libraries and whatnot?

Regards,
Mike
