I recently tried to install 11dev on OS-X (10.4.10) and found that  
all the moving parts were just too much for me. I had the impression  
that the 11dev installation instructions were geared toward folks  
with a solid understanding of the python environment, as well as  
stuff like the SWIG bindings. (IIRC, the SWIG bindings were one of my  
big difficulties.) I did not keep a detailed log of my efforts, and  
admittedly I decided to give up rather than beg the list for a lot of  
help. The fact that things tend to go in odd un-*nix like places in  
OS-X is also certainly part of the problem. The 10.4 installation  
instructions were much more geared to a newbie like me, and that  
worked no problem. So I decided to wait for an official release of 11  
before I switch.

Just a comment from the peanut gallery, and in no way a slight on the  
industrious and incredibly helpful trac community, for whom I feel  
nothing but gratitude.
