Darn. I guess it's not uncommon that even folks with a 64 bit machine may need a lib or something that is 32 bit only -- so maybe good to keep it. But it really is a pain -- and this example is supposed to be part of Python's stdlib!

That would be OK for most folks, I guess, though I'd really prefer it if things were more clear -- you have a 32/64 bit python, you install wheels and it works fine for you, so distribute via py2app, then it crashed when run in 32 bit mode...
