[CIG-SHORT] Problem running Pylith binary on 64-bit Mac OS X

Isabelle-

The axialdisp example works for me on OS X 10.5, so it should work. If 
the elastic examples work, it is not a 32 bit versus 64 bit issue. Try 
running the 3d/hex8 examples that also have a viscoelastic material.

This may be something odd related to OS X 10.6. I don't know if PyLith 
has been used much with 10.6.

ANYONE ELSE WITH 10.6 encountering errors when running the axialdisp 
example in twocells/twohex8?
