When you install a Python module (like MMTK) with (e.g. with the "python 
setup.py install" command) it will be installed somewhere like the 
lib/python2.X/site-packages directory, i.e. specific to python 2.X

(Where Python 2.X will be 2.3 or 2.4, whichever version of python you 
used to run the setup script)

I think what has happened is you have MMTK installed under the Python 
2.3, and not under Python 2.4

So I suggest you reinstall MMTK using Python 2.4 this time.
