Fatal errors trying to install gtk on Mac (Mavericks)

I guess I'm a glutton for punishment. I'm trying (again) to install gk on my Mac so I can experiment with it from Haskell. I'm following the instructions at http://www.gtk.org/download/macos.php and was in the middle of the jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-bootstrap phase

The build failed with Python errors (see log below) and a popup dialog (Python quit unexpectedly while using the libpython2.7.dylib plug-in)

Anyone know how to fix this problem?

When I had this issue it was because of an odd mix of Python versions on my machine. The simple fix is to run jhbuild build python before you run jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-bootstrap so that the environment has the version it is expecting where it expects it to be.
