At a first guess, MacPython requires a different format of dynamic
shared object (some kind of CFM nonsense, I presume :-) to that used
by the Unix-y python you get when you type "python" in the terminal.

So you need to find (or make) MacPython builds of any C extensions you
want to use.

Just a guess, mind.

Cheers,
M.
