Without -undefined dynamic_lookup, your Python extensions are bound to  
a specific Python installation location (i.e. the system 2.3.0 and a  
user-installed 2.3.4).  This tends to be quite a problem.  With  
-undefined dynamic_lookup, they are not.

Just search for "version mismatch" on pythonmac-sig:
