Thanks for pushing me into the correct direction with this!

It's a stupid thing really, the
"found g_exportedScripts Tuple([Name('capitalisePython')])"

is key here - it is "Tuple(.....)" whereas default, builtin type tuple
wouldn't print that. (someone more experienced with python probably
would have spot that right away)

So the expr is not a real tuple, and thus the iteration fails because
python 2.3 doesn't do any implicit conversion, the try - except
revealed a TypeError - iteration over non-sequence

So looking again at the compiler-module's documentation:
http://docs.python.org/release/2.3.5/lib/module-compiler.ast.html

The "Tuple" is a Node-type, that in turn contains a nodes attribute,
iterating over those nodes works, so the fix is:

- for item in node.expr:
+ for item in node.expr.nodes:
