Thank you for the hint. I have checked with "file" command the format of the 
libraries on mac and got following result:

one of my application's libraries:
libkkbase.dylib: Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386

my python module that has been built using standard python distutils:
j3k.so: Mach-O bundle i386

I am not actually sure what's the difference between "bundle" and "dynamically 
linked shared library" on mac and if they can be linked together? Perhaps I 
should configure distutils on mac somehow specially to make the module ready for 
embedding?

Thanks,

KK
