[PyPy-issue] [issue523] Problem with libc on mac (cdll is None)

[Leonardo Santagada]

New submission from Leonardo Santagada <santagada at gmail.com>:

I've seem somewhere that this error is related to the libc on the system, I'm on mac os x 10.6.2 (snow 
leopard). I get this error when I try to run bzr on top of pypy-c trunk r74059.

Traceback (most recent call last):
