I think this is a pretty important constituency in the scientific
python crowd.

We will be doing 2.4 releases in the next two weeks or so.

OK, point taken.
But still, given that I think I've fixed the bug, we should unmask it so we can see if I actually did.
Still not willing to spend hours on my Windows box just to check legacy Python2.3 support,

My understanding is that once NumPy is considered "stable", Enthought
will switch to Python 2.4.

We will be switching to Python 2.4 as soon as our new build machine arrives and
we've tested Enthon on it. That should be in about two weeks.
Including numpy is a separate issue and will occur later, probably next month.
