postflight.framework fails during installation:

The first problem is that in 
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/bin there is no 
executable 'python' anymore - there is 'python3.1', etc.

Also chown at the end should set the group to 'admin', not the owner.

I've attached a patch that fixes these issues. (the problem with chown 
is also present in the installer for 2.6.x ).

Issue5652 suggests removing the Mac/Tools references here and in trunk.
