I'm using the compiled version supplied by python.org.


Python 3.3.0rc1 (v3.3.0rc1:8bb5c7bc46ba, Aug 25 2012, 10:09:29)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)] on darwin

>>> import sys
>>> sys.path
['', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.3/lib/python33.zip',
'/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.3/lib/python3.3',

This contrasts with (for python3.1)
