The difference in size can probably be attributed to different default
compile/link options, I've seen seen similar 50% differences with wx
libs even on the same machine and same compiler.  Another possibility is
that the smaller one is not a universal binary for some reason.

If the error you are getting is "Unknown load command" then you need to
get a newer version of the macholib package or egg.
