Sounds like something bad happened trying to rewrite the Mach-O headers  
of the dylib, I haven't seen this sort of issue in a long time.

Send me /Library/Frameworks/Python/2.3/Python and  
/Users/richard/src/cg/CGPublisher-Zope/dist/CGPublisher-Zope.app/ 
Contents/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python and I'll take  
a look to see what the difference is.
