[issue11445] Something changed w.r.t. <prefix>/pythonN.M/site-packages in the Hg switch

I can reproduce this.  Chances are you'll see that the python.exe has been dynamically linked to the MacPorts Python instead of the just produced libpython2.7.dylib :

$ otool -L ./python.exe
./python.exe:
	/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Python (compatibility version 2.7.0, current version 2.7.0)
	/usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 111.1.5)
	/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/Versions/A/CoreFoundation (compatibility version 150.0.0, current version 476.19.0)
	/usr/lib/libmx.A.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 47.1.0)

No doubt you can work around it by removing the --enable-shared and/or removing the MacPorts Python2.7 from the picture.  It's not yet clear to me why it's getting linked that way (--enable-shared on OS X doesn't get tested all that much as we normally do framework builds) but I'm very doubtful it has anything directly to do with hg vs svn checkout.
