There are a lot of people still using Mac OS X 10.4 (at least, they do
a lot of complaining about recent Apple security releases breaking the
world on Apple's forums ;-).  Most likely those folks who are using
bazaar are also using MacPorts or Fink, where the default is 2.4 by
now and maybe 2.5 for new installations of Python, but the system
Python is 2.3.
