[C++-sig] Boost python in OS X, with non-framework python 2.4

[Lars Yencken]

Ok, after some trouble, someone mentioned the command otool, and  
using otool -L I was able to debug some of my strange shared library  
problems, some of which were undoubtedly caused by trying too hard  
(many versions of python, many simultaneous installs of boost.python,  
frameworks, fink, darwinports...).

I removed all the alternative versions of python and boost python,  
fully deleted the current install of boost python, and reinstalled it  
for framework python 2.4. I can now successfully build extensions on  
python 2.4, so I'm happy.

Thanks for the help!
