The 2.4 problems stemmed from lack of a 'uint32' type in the system headers, I think (which surprised me) -- maybe python is including the wrong headers for 10.2 or something... The 2.5 problems were more complex link errors with printf -- I'd seen that type of error before, but not for a while. I don't really have time right now to track these errors down -- I've been spending enough time trying to get the dlopen patch tested and verfified, while still doing my actual work. Maybe once the dlopen stuff gets put to bed, but even then I can't guarantee anything.
