Hi Ned. I've removed the mac ports version of libxml2 and libxslt and it compiled - woo hoo!! I'll try a new build of mod_python tomorrow. Maybe things are not so bad after all. This is quite encouraging. I guess I am getting down about these linking issues and of course want some better reliability back into some of the software builds that I seemed to have before. Many thanks for this tip :-)
