[Pythonmac-SIG] weak-link libraries problem

[William Kyngesburye]

I just ran into an odd and annoying problem - I'm building a Python  
library/extension thing for a package (MapServer) and have a library  
weak-linked (it's to a non-open source product, this is so others  
don't have to install that if they don't need it and I don't have to  
build multiple versions...).  Python's import seems to ignore that, I  
suspect it's doing it's own library loading thing and checking all  
symbols or something.

Is this normal?  Is there a way to make Python NOT do it?  Or am I  
stuck with it?
