Sounds like not all of the python libraries I copied in are being found (I
think I need to set the PYTHONPATH variable to include the app's python
directory as the top of the search list).  My guess is that this works for
James and myself since we installed all of the python support libraries via
macports.

I'll try to hunt down the python pathing gremlins, but I suspect I may
never get them all.   Also starting to get well out of my experience
wheelhouse.

If anyone else knows how to set environmental variables from inside a MacOS
Application (not from the user's profile nor launchd....), I'm open to
suggestions on how to fix it :)
