It should be, are you sure it's not?  If the module links to the  
dylib, it will get picked up.. unless it's happening dynamically at  
runtime (a la ctypes).  You might try setting os.environ 
['DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH'] = '/usr/local/lib' in your setup  
script, which might help if the module isn't linked correctly.

No.  Libraries and frameworks need to live in the frameworks dir and  
they need their Mach-O headers rewritten.  The frameworks option  
might work... but it really should get picked up automatically.  If  
it does not get picked up automatically there's something wrong with  
the extension or py2app.. but I doubt it's py2app's fault.
