[Image-SIG] The _imaging C module is not installed

[Freddy Duran]

Dear "Secret Labs", I'm having an issue using the PIL library on a mac OS X Mountain Lion in which I get the following error message when I try to use some of the functions in the PIL library.  The _imaging C module is not installed.  I've made sure that I had all dependencies updated and installed through ports and I've built your library with the included scripts.  I've cleaned, make, verified that the PYTHONPATH includes the library and I've verified that the _imaging.so files are in the directory and I still get the same error.  Interesting thing when I try to import the library directly I get the following error message:  "_imaging.so mach-o, but wrong architecture".
Any thoughts or answers?  I see through posts out on the internet that I'm not the only one with this issue, Some have resolved this but looks like none have resolved it using mountain lion.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

R,
