Kevin, I had the latest Python from Python.org. I've now installed the latest Python from ActiveState, and the Terminal command now provides an exact match to the info on your machine. But the mobi8 image files are still empty.
So, I switched from Snow Leopard to a Mavericks installation, installed the latest ActiveState Python, and tried again. This time the images showed up (even though the Terminal command persisted in showing 2.7.5, even after reboot).
So, it is likely a Python bug on Snow Leopard, and I don't think it's worth pursuing. I don't personally need the same images to show up for both mobi7 and mobi8. The fix you already figured out was the important one, and I appreciate your work.
