I’m trying to get PIL and mod_python to run on apache2 on a Mac running
OSX 10.5 To give some background, httpd is build with 4 target
processors, so everything loaded by it (mod_python, PIL, etc) has to be
built to handle all 4 target processors. Including all PIL and it’s
libraries. I am to the point where PIL has been rebuilt for the 4 target
processors. If I run otool on it, I get the list of modules it loads,
and not all of them are built for the 4 processors, some of which appear
to be OS built-in libraries.
So, the point I am stuck at: It’s not clear to me how and what to do to
rebuild those modules, and it’s not clear to me if it’s even safe to
rebuild and replace those modules with 4 processor versions of the
files.
I wouldn't. Also, I'm a bit confused. The Apple-supplied built-in ones
should be dynamic libs, and I thought those only had to be built for the
processor you are running on.
Which libs are you having issues with?
Anyway, I wouldn't replace ANY system libs. If the system ones won't
work for you, you'll probably need to build your own versions of them,
install them elsewhere, and make sure PIL links to those.

Last I heard MacPorts and Fink don't do any multi-processor building.
Which leaves you with:
Download the source and go?
The problem there is that many (most) libs don't build Universal out of
the box, so you need o go in and hack the MakeFiles. I've only done dual
mode builds (PPC and Intel, 32bit), but I imagine it's a similar deal.
One trick is going to be if Configure sets anything about 32 vs. 64
bits, then you may run into issues. I think most of the endian issues
have been addressed in the major libraries.
I'd try this question on the pythonmac list -- it's really more a Mac
issue than a PIL one.
Good luck!
