I am OS X and I am working with a pre-compiled version of IronPython (it is hosted by Rhino 3d to be specific).</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">
I am attempting to import standard CPython libraries, such as pycurl. I am confused as the FAQ states compatibility between IronPython 2.7 and CPython 2.7, but using the following code which works on CPython 2.7.2 fails on IronPython 2.7.0.</div>

It claims no module pycurl. A little more reading shows attempts to allow linkage between IronPython and CPython such as ironclad (<a href="http://code.google.com/p/ironclad/" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(0,0,204)">http://code.google.com/p/ironclad/</a> ), but then why the claimed compatibility in the first place?</div>
