[XML-SIG] Failing attempt to import xml.xslt on OS X

Hi,

I'm trying to make use of the excellent "Python & XML" book and am 
currently interested in using XSLT. It seems to work flawlessly on 
a Windows box using Python 2.1, pyXML 0.6.5 (or 0.6.6) and 4Suite 
0.11.1. Now I'm trying on OS X with Python 2.2, pyXML 0.7 and 
4Suite 0.11.1 (all built from sources) which gives me the following 
import error below. 

Hence I wonder if this is just a bad combination of versions or
something else? I know that 4Suite doesn't offer binaries for Py-
thon 2.2 for downloading, but does that mean it should not be
expected to work on 2.2, too? Or is it pyXML 0.7?

Thanks for any insight!

Dinu
