I tried, but following the building instruction on Wiki for Mac OS X
(adding "--disable-shared" to configure) does not build the dynamic
link library (of course, with that setting) so pysqlite still does not
access the new sqlite lib but only the old one. I have a static lib of
3.3.17 only.

May I ask exactly why the wiki instruct to NOT build shared lib ?
The reference of a bad libtool still applies to recent OS X releases ?

If I have time maybe I'll make a couple of tries but I'ld know more
about this issue ;)


Anyway, thanks for your answer! :)
