It really cuts to the heart of the problem with python builds: you can accidentally depend on some aspect of the platform in a way which requires nuanced understanding of the native build toolchain to understand. For what it's worth this is definitely a problem on OS X and Windows as well (accidentally depending on homebrew or chocolatey for example); any chance you'll be extending it to deal with 'dumpbin' and 'otool' as well as 'ldd'?
