the error message means exactly what it says, so it sure looks as
if Python's picking up some _imaging.pyd file that doesn't match the
Python interpreter you're using.
have you verified that you don't have some old _imaging file lying
around somewhere ?
another possibility is that the bundled version is built in some non-
standard way, so that external extensions won't work. it might be
a good idea to search the OO forums for clues...
