Summary: Use .dylib for shared objects on MacOS X

Initial Comment:
This patch enables python to recognize .dylib as a
valid shared library extension on MacOS X/Darwin.
Python will also use .dylib as the extension for
native-code python modules; .so files are still
recognized for backward compatibility.

The reason for writing this patch was that setup.py
failes to recognize the existince of openssl because
there is only a shared library with suffix .dylib.
