So you need to get the shared libraries loaded.  The easiest way of doing this 
that I can think of is by setting them in the LD_PRELOAD environment variable 
before starting Python.  There might be an easier way, but it doesn't 
immediately occur to me.  I just gave it a try by using "find" to find 
everything in the NOX build directory with ".so" in it, and then had to 
manually add in libboost_filesystem.so as well.
