hi all,
i've originally posted this on python-list -- but I have a suspicion my
questions may have to do with Mac-specific issues, so I'll try here as well ...
i've successfully built Python-2.4.1 from src on OSX 10.3.8 as a framework
install with, simply:
./configure \
hi bob,
no matter what i do, the build links against the 'native'
/usr/lib/libxml* ... successful w/ no error, just the 'wrong' lib.

well, that's good -- at least consistent with why there's no significant

your suspicion, refers to the OSX

robert,
Foundation is its own framework (see /System/Library/Frameworks)
yup.
which is implicitly linked in by Cocoa and Carbon.
sigh. more to learn. =-)
clearly time to unpack actually read my new copy of Hillegass' book ...
which, iiuc, would suggest no dependence whatsoever on libxml --

Actually no, Carbon doesn't link to Foundation. Everything written in
Objective-C does, though. You're probably thinking of
