Hi folks,

coming a bit late to the game, but...

Why was this a problem? The Framework python is universal, and is set up 
to build universal extensions -- for the most part, that's what you 
want, and it certainly won't hurt anything, unless you are VERY short of 
disk space!

Again, why? In any case, it looks like you've gone through a bunch of 
hassle to create something that is now making things difficult for you.

I'd go back and either install the binary on pythonmac.org, or build 
from source with the default settings to get a universal numpy to go 
with your universal python. Then try building GDAL again.

Or, even easier, just use William's installers.
