IIRC that "__dummy" was a workaround for something not being loaded into the shared library that's at the heart of the Python framework. Don't ask me what wasn't being loaded, this is really long ago (OSX 10.2, or 10.3 at the latest). If you look through the Makefile (Makefile.pre.in, configure.in, etc) you should be able to find it, there's probably a linker flag "-u __dummy" somewhere. Try removing it, and see what breaks. -- Jack Jansen, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.cwi.nl/~jack If I can't dance I don't want to be part of your revolution -- Emma Goldman _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
