Good tip. It turns out that the distutils magic doesn't actually work
on Mac OS X, but sys.executable works great and is simple and
portable. (Dave suggested sys.executable as well.)
After fixing this issue, and several other issues, Dave has got the
ctypes bindings working on Mac OS X, so it looks like we're in good
shape!
Cheers,
David
