Well, it depends on your implementation of pairing.  Cartesian products 
can be poroved to exist in Zermelo set theory if you use Winer-Kuratowski 
pairs.  Mathias has a delightful short proof that replecement follows from 
the assertion that the cartesian produc x \times y exists for all x and y 
and all implementations of pairing.
