But as far as I can tell, the 'file' and 'otool' commands aren't showing anything unusual (unless there's a big difference between 2.7.1 and 2.7.2 -- scroll to the bottom of this output to see what otool says.) I'm out of ideas here . . . Is there anything else I should look at to figure this out?

The reason that a version mismatch can cause this
error, is that the two versions reside in different
shared libraries--you effectively have two separate
python interpreters in the same process. It doesn't
matter how similar the versions are. With that in
mind, that paths look suspicious to me. Can you find
the output of bjam --debug-configuration <other options>
?
