Is that a special version of > clock() that's not compatible with the one provided here on 10.4? In short: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) is an officially certified UNIX conforming to UNIX 2003 specification. Since Mac OS X 10.4 and earlier still had to be supported, Apple decided to use names like _clock() for legacy calls and _clock$UNIX2003() for the new UNIX specification compatible calls. See the details here: http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/releasenotes/Darwin/SymbolVariantsRelNotes/index.html Unfortunately, this also means that you cannot use this build of PIL on Mac OS X 10.4 and older.
