Summary: can't build and self-test on Mac OS X

Initial Comment:
Attached is a complete screen transcript showing me untarring the 
pycrypto 2.0 tarball, running setup.py build_ext, setup.py install, 
and test.py, and getting that annoyingly non-specific "wrong 
interpreter error".

I explicitly invoked the same interpreter in each case -- /usr/bin/
pythonw.

I repeated the same experiment with /usr/bin/python with the 
same results.

As an aside, the AES impl seems to be Barreto's, which is marked 
here [1] as "not for real use".

Alternate implementations that I would recommend include Brian 
Gladman's, and "Whatever Wei Dai uses in Crypto++".

Regards,

Zooko

I'm going to try this experiment on a different Mac box...

No, I invoked it as:

/usr/bin/pythonw ./setup.py

not as:

./setup.py

Also, I uninstalled all other versions of Python that I could find before 
running that test.  ;-)

You're running ./setup.py; could the #! line be finding a
version or compilation other than /usr/bin/python?
