Comment (by fbissey):

 Going back to pari :) the install_name problem is all sage's spkg-install
 fault. Pari's own install target produce a correct dylib but sage does
 this little interesting bit:
 {{{
     if [ "$UNAME" = "Darwin" ]; then
         # The following is a hack to get the library installed correctly
         # on Mac OS X:
         echo "Applying Mac OS X hack -- deleting and reinstalling
 libpari.a ..."
         rm -f Odarwin-ppc/*lib*
         $MAKE install-lib-sta
         if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
             echo >&2 "Error reinstalling PARI's static libraries (OS X
 trick)"
             exit 1
         fi

         cd "`config/objdir`" && cp -f libpari* "$SAGE_LOCAL/lib"
         if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
             echo >&2 "Error copying PARI's libraries (OS X trick)"
             exit 1
         fi
         cd "$CUR"
     fi
 }}}
 So we use the copy from the build directory in SAGE_LOCAL/lib. But when
 when you do "make install" pari actually rebuilds libpari{,-gmp}.dylib in
 the install location (modulo DESTDIR if it is defined) with the correct
 install_name. But spkg-install throw all that away and uses a copy without
 any install_name set.

 Unless someone can explain to me what this hack is all about, I think its
 removal should have a bug of its own on trac.
