[lxml-dev] Build problems under MacOS-X

[Jon Rosebaugh]

I'm beginning to think that it's not actually compiling statically. I
set up a fresh install of OS X, installed Python, installed XCode,
installed macports, libiconv, libxml2, zlib, libxslt, and tried
building statically with the following options in the setup file and
the following command:

STATIC_INCLUDE_DIRS = ["/opt/local/include", "/opt/local/include/libxml2"]
STATIC_LIBRARY_DIRS = ["/opt/local/lib"]
STATIC_CFLAGS = ["-liconv", "-lz"]

euterpe:~/lxml-2.0 jon$ export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/local/lib
euterpe:~/lxml-2.0 jon$ python setup.py bdist_egg --static

However, I noticed (a) that the gcc line still says -dynamic and (b)
the file size of etree.so does not differ whether or not I build with
the --static option. And I still get the same segfaults.

NOTE: Trying to build without Cython, pre-generated 'src/lxml/etree.c'
needs to be available.
