Re: [pygame] BUG with fix: PyGame crash on Intel Duo Core (Mac OS X 1.4.X)

I recently installed Python 2.4 and PyGame using fink (the Debian-

PowerPC Macs (dual G5) and
PowerBook G4 and ran fine.
It was also installed on a MacBook Pro (duo Core Intel), but
crashed with "Illegal
Instruction". This note is about a work-around that allows PyGame
to run on the Mac Intel
platform. It also indicates more or less where the problem lies.
I hope you find this useful.
This is probably because the version of PyObjC in fink is not really
Intel compatible.
