That's the problem.  My QGIS is built to use the system Python, so it doesn't see the MacPython site-packages.  QGIS python is not normal python use where a module can be used across different python builds as long as they're the same version (more or less), QGIS includes its own python interpreter, via the Python framework, thus is hardwired to a specific build of Python.

Install your modules in the system site-packages in /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages.
