Here's your problem. It's a bug in the Apple distributed version of
Python 2.2. What you need to do is edit the 

/usr/lib/python2.2/config/Makefile


and remove the line that says:

-arch i386

You can imagine that you really aren't on an i386 machine, after all.

I still didn't get jpeg support, but otherwise it works fine.
