python 2.7, import wx says "wrong architecture"

[Dave Curtis]

So I seem to have partially answered this one myself:
https://trac.macports.org/ticket/31182
the above ticket says how to start with the required python.

So... 

david-curtiss-macbook:capek2 dave$ arch -i386 python2.7
Python 2.7.2 (default, Mar 21 2012, 22:10:23) 
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import wx
>>> 

Well the above looks good, but the below, not so much....


david-curtiss-macbook:capek2 dave$ arch -i386 idle2.7
** IDLE can't import Tkinter.  Your Python may not be configured for Tk. **

which is very annoying.  Because idle2.7 starts up perfectly fine in 64 bits.

The so is built only for i386 -- I thought that was the point of all this ordeal of building universal binaries, that wx is 32 bit only. So it looks like a 32 bit lib.so, but now Python is unhappy with it.
