Yuan,
Thanks for the patch. I don't use MacOSX so I can't test it, but I've
committed it. If possible, in the future please join the mailing list
and post your items there. As far as your CFFI suggestions go, I
encourage you to post them on the cffi-devel list; Mac users seem to
have a lot of trouble with paths and anything that improves that
situation should be welcome.
Liam
