It's wrong because there was *no* "-framework Python", it doesn't 
matter so much where it is.  He didn't follow my "should be" example 
exactly, so I repeated it, sorry for the reordering confusion.

"_PyEval_CallFunction defined in indirectly referenced dynamic library" 
means that he tried to steal a reference to Python.framework via 
libboost_python, you can't do that with two level namespaces (unless 
libboost_python was an umbrella for Python.framework, which it is not 
and should not be).  You have to have direct references to the symbols 
that you use, as I said before when I spoke briefly about two level 
namespaces.
