Hi Ned. The Python module I am building is actually the Python module for ROOT, a large package from CERN. However, the problem arises before that code enters the picture, when I am building Python itself. All I want to do is create "libpython2.5.dylib", or its equivalent, and I can't seem to make that happen on Tiger.
