Going on the Plone patch it looks like the Posix compatability is the problem:

http://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/buildout/python/src/python-2.4-darwin-10.6.patch:

+ +#if (defined APPLE) && (!defined _POSIX_C_SOURCE) +#define TEMPORARILY_DEFININGPOSIX_C_SOURCE /* so we can #undef it later */ +#define _POSIX_C_SOURCE /* avoid deprecated struct ostat in sys/stat.h */ +#endif +

#include <sys/stat.h> #elif defined(HAVE_STAT_H) #include <stat.h> #endif

+/* Mac OS X: undefine _POSIX_C_SOURCE if it wasn't defined before */ +#ifdef TEMPORARILY_DEFININGPOSIX_C_SOURCE +#undef _POSIX_C_SOURCE +#undef TEMPORARILY_DEFININGPOSIX_C_SOURCE +#endif

There is a chance that this will be fixed somedays?

Even if python2.4 is very old, this bug create great problems to Plone developers. Plone is a very famous Open Source CMS and the current version use python 2.4...

I can confirm that YS patch does solve the problem with asyncore. Until someone actually commits the patch it is easy enough to apply:

Download the patch sudo patch /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/lang/python24Portfile ~/Downloads/Portfile.diff sudo port install python24

However, as of Zope 2.12 Python 2.4 is no longer officially supported for Zope and most work is done using Python 2.6, installed using buildout. Plone 4 will be use Zope 2.12 so we should indeed be thinking of retiring Python 2.4
