Well, the problem I hit wasn't related. I had experimentally bumped the Python
version to the latest one and run an Xcode3 build with SDK-10.5. For some reason
I can't find, Python-2.7.5 is pulling in a symbol from libssl-0.9.8.dylib, even though SDK-1.5 only provides 
libssl-0.9.7.dylib, which doesn't have the symbol. Importing _hashlib fails. 2.7.4 and earlier don't have the 
problem. There seem to be no differences in the relevant sources, and the gcc command lines seem to be 
identical.
