I think you are using two different version of Python: the Python 2.1 
you installed yourself into /usr/local/bin and the Apple-supplied 
Python 2.2 in /usr/bin/python. My guess is that you have used 
/usr/bin/python to build Zope and are now using /usr/local/bin/python 
to run it.

You must use the exact same python to do the build as you will use to 
run Zope (because the ABI that the Python core presents to extension 
modules may change between releases).
