I traced everything, and here is what happens:

I just can't understand that it's my Python that is broken, because I
use it for other things like Turbogears and it seems to be working
fine. Could it be that the modules built by CalendarServer has been
built for PPC by some freak coincidence?

When I check PyXML it looks like everything is built for i386 though.

I'll try to get a hold of another intel mac to try with.
