Hi Dan,

When you built boost did you use the bootstrap/b2 parameters suggest in MAC-OSX.txt or some variation?

I think __ZN5boost6python7objects15function_objectERKNS1_11py_functionERKSt4pairIPKNS0_6detail7keywordES9_E is a c++ mangled name for some specific method, but it's not included in your library somehow.
